In addition, one skill that is absolutely mandatory is the ability to cross examination opposing witnesses. If you are facing serious criminal charges, sit down with an experienced Minnesota criminal defense attorney.
"Since most of the opposing witnesses may think you did it, knowing how to handle people who want to hurt you in trial is a mandatory skill."
Jack Rice, a nationally renowned criminal defense attorney in Minnesota, appears on Court TV on 7/13/22 to discuss the value of cross examination. Cross is one of the most important and powerful tools you have.
"Good cross examination is not about the witness testifying. It is about the attorney driving that witness to say very specific things in very specific ways."
If you are facing criminal charges, make sure you fully understand your rights, the charges that you face, the ramifications of what can happen in things don't go well and what comes next. A good criminal defense attorney should know where you are but also your options so you know where you are going.
