Pre-File Investigation Attorney in Boca Raton

Boca Raton Criminal Defense Counsel Before Charges Are Filed

A pre-file investigation is a term used to describe the services a criminal attorney provides to a client before formal charges are actually filed against him or her. An investigation is the first step in almost all criminal cases, and obtaining legal counsel in the face of this process can act as a valuable preventative measure to positively impact the outcome of your case.

Making the choice to involve a lawyer as early as possible is important and may be a deciding factor in whether you actually face criminal charges in the first place. At The Orner Law Firm, we represent clients throughout Boca Raton, offering pre-file investigation representation in the face of all types of potential charges: domestic violence, fraud, rape, manslaughter, hit and run, burglary, robbery, statutory rape, and much more. We have more than 35 years of combined experience to apply to your defense and will not rest until we have provided the best legal representation possible.

How Does a Pre-File Investigation Work?

In most situations, a prosecutor will not press charges against a defendant unless they have sufficient evidence that they believe will secure a conviction. This makes the investigatory stage of a criminal case all the more important. If your attorney is able to become involved and work to limit the scope of the investigation against you or otherwise lessen the amount of evidence that can be collected against you, this may mean that the prosecuting attorney will refrain from pressing charges altogether. After all, a person who is properly represented by a Boca Raton criminal defense attorney will have protection during any search, seizure of evidence, police questioning, or any other step in the criminal investigation. This greatly decreases the likelihood of a confession or condemning evidence.
