BEWARE AN ATTORNEY WHO MAKES PROMISES

Whomever the defendant chooses for representation, please keep this in mind:    

     When considering whom the defendant will hire as his attorney, please know that an attorney can NOT and should NOT ethically or legally promise any result in terms of having charges dismissed or reduced or saying that he can guarantee making a deal with the police, prosecutor, or judge.  Doing so is a violation of Bar Association ethics.
