Navigating Multiple Criminal Charges: What You Need to Know
Do you have a pending criminal case and you have been so unfortunate to pick up another charge during this criminal case? Well, my name is Aaron Grubb. I’m a Tahlequah criminal attorney at Wirth Law Office.
In this video, we’re just going to talk about any kind of subsequent criminal charges that are filed before the resolution of your current criminal case. If you are ever so unfortunate to pick up another criminal charge during your pending criminal case, then a lot of the time, the attorney agreements will have specific sections that will exclude further representation for any subsequent criminal case.
The Complications of Multiple Charges
This means that while you might have retained an attorney for your first criminal case, your second criminal case does not fall under that same contract. What will happen is, well, first, the state really doesn’t care about that. They might try to push both of those cases together.
It makes it very awkward for attorneys to say, Well, I’m not really representing him on his second case, but I am representing him on his first case. Judges and prosecutors really don’t like that. They prefer to wrap everything up and make it very efficient, which can complicate matters greatly for defendants.
The Importance of Legal Representation
It’s important that you understand that it’s a very big issue whenever you pick up a subsequent charge during the pendency of your criminal charges. You want to avoid that at all costs. Navigating through legal challenges can be daunting, but having a knowledgeable attorney can make a significant difference in your case.
