  1. Michael LeRoy of Orlando Responsibilities of a Defense Attorney

  2. The Sixth Amendment to the Constitution guarantees every person the right to by represented by a quality attorney, like Michael LeRoy, an attorney in Orlando, Florida. For those that have been accused of wrong doings, this means hiring a defense attorney. Defense attorneys are responsible for defending those that have been accused of a crime, making sure that their rights are protected per all applicable laws at the local, state, and federal level.

  3. When it comes to the responsibilities of a defense attorney, they are first and foremost responsible for providing a vigorous and competent defense for their clients. If the client doesn’t receive this, they can potentially be convicted and sue their defense attorney for malpractice.

  4. In order for a defense attorney to provide a competent defense for their client, they must accomplish a number of tasks before and during the trial. They must prepare a coherent opening and closing argument, question and cross-examine witnesses, and present defense in the court of law. If the attorney fails at any of these tasks or fails to speak up when the prosecution asks an improper question, that attorney could be considered incompetent. They also must know which requests and motions to file with the court.

  5. If you have been accused of a crime, it is important for you to understand the role your defense attorney will play in your case. Michael LeRoy of Orlando believes that defense attorneys across the country aim to prevent innocent people from being sent to prison and safeguard constitutional protection. Armed with this knowledge, you can determine whether you are being adequately represented in your criminal case.
