Salt Lake Criminal Defense - Plea Negotiations and Plea
Bargains
Tough talk may make a good sales pitch. But the reality is
that not every criminal case is best dealt with by going to trial. As
an experienced
criminal
defense lawyer in Salt Lake City, Utah, Stephen Howard has
achieved not guilty verdicts on cases as serious as aggravated robbery,
aggravated assault,
burglary,
forgery,
and
more. But his
experience in defending literally thousands of
serious felony charges has also taught him that the best results are
often achieved through a negotiated resolution. When it comes
to
defending criminal charges, every case is unique. You deserve
an attorney with the experience to develop a case theory and strategy
designed to achieve the best results possible. Plea
negotiations can play a vital role in achieving a positive outcome for
your Utah criminal case.
As an experienced and effective
negoitator,
Stephen Howard has achieved
misdemeanor plea offers with probation on cases as
serious as child abuse homicide,
aggravated
burglary,
aggravated
robbery,
kidnapping,
aggravated
assault, and many more. For clients
who would have been facing years or even life in prison if they had
lost at trial, a negotiated resolution that resulted in a minor
misdemeanor conviction with probation was a "win."
