Summary: | "You get a call asking you to represent a client who has just been arrested. Or one who believes that s/he is 'wanted' or under criminal investigation. What do you do? [This book gives the reader a] roadmap on how to respond: The questions you must ask your client immediately, The tasks you must get underway (client interview; defense investigation). The preparations for the preliminary hearing. What tactics to take in plea negotiation. The motions you need to make-and what evidence you can get suppressed. The selection of the jury and the telling of the defendant's story. The most effective closing arguments. And, what will be most important to your client: how fast can you get bail set! [This books is a] guidebook for criminal defense lawyers at the trial level-completely updated for 2017. It gives defense lawyers the information they have to know, and the strategic factors they should consider, at each stage of the criminal trial process."--
