Criminal Defense Lawyer in Richmond and Farmville, VA

Seeking justice for the accused 

No two criminal defendants get exactly the same treatment from the courts.  Many legitimate factors play a role in the likelihood of conviction, some of which include prior convictions, a history of violence, the severity of the crime charged and the evidence amassed.  For first-time offenders, diversionary programs and suspended sentences may stave off the stigma of conviction, although such remedies are often accompanied by the possibility that the original penalty take full effect upon any subsequent conviction.

An attorney at the Massie Law Firm can advise you of your legal rights in relation to conviction.  We caution you to understand the weight and value of your Miranda warning:  "You have the right to remain silent.  Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law."  Remain silent until you have an attorney present.  Keep in mind that police and prosecutors are working to build a case against you.  An attorney serves as your legal advocate.
