Communicating With Your Attorney

After my business was sued by a past partner, I knew I would need to work hard to prove my case. Unfortunately, since I didn't know what I was doing or how to prove that I didn't do what my partner said I did, I decided to hire a criminal attorney.

It made a huge difference. This blog is for anyone out there who has been accused of something that they didn't do and how an attorney can help.
