About this Gig

FAQ
Do you work directly for the criminal defendant, or for the defense attorney?
I work to advise and inform the lawyer so that the defense can better assist their client. My work would be considered attorney work product for purposes of confidentiality.
What are some ways you help the lawyer communicate with a criminal defendant-client?
One key is understanding the fear, apprehension and emotion a defendant carries inside. These natural traits can interfere with their listening and comprehension abilities. A clearer presentation by the lawyer about the survivability and even positive aspects of prison can make a difference.
