For When Your Freedom Is At Stake
Criminal charges are a serious matter no matter the level of offense. Being convicted of a DUI, misdemeanor or felony has serious implications not only for your freedom but for your future.
You can preserve both by hiring a criminal defense attorney at The Stubbs Law Firm, PLLC. No matter the charge you face in the state courts of Mississippi, we know the system and procedures, as well as how to negotiate with prosecutors. It is our job to make sure you are treated fairly and do not face a disproportionate sentence.
In Criminal Cases, Time Is Of The Essence
Criminal law rests almost entirely on procedure and timelines. Missing a deadline in one step increases your chances of a long jail sentence or other more burdensome punishment. By having legal experience on your side, your case is not only handled efficiently but also correctly.
Attorneys at The Stubbs Law Firm, PLLC do not judge but listen to your side of the story. We look at all the facts of the arrest and booking, in case any of your constitutional rights were violated.
Lawyers also review all reports by police officers and witnesses to see if there is bias or inconsistencies. Prosecutors must prove your case beyond a reasonable doubt meaning the unexplained can set you free.

What Is a Criminal Defense Attorney?
Criminal defense law firms provide legal representation for clients who are facing criminal charges, whether they are for misdemeanor or felony infractions. If you’ve been charged with a crime, it’s best to work with a criminal defense attorney who specializes in criminal law in the state you were arrested or charged in. Criminal defense attorneys help you navigate through the complex criminal justice system and present your case in court.
The criminal defense attorneys at The Stubbs Law Firm are devoted to protecting the rights of our clients. Without the expert assistance of a criminal defense attorney, you’re left at the mercy of the judges and prosecutors who want to get convictions and close cases as quickly as possible. Speaking on behalf of our clients, our criminal defense attorneys work tirelessly to provide the best possible outcome for each individual's situation.
When Do You Need a Criminal Defense Attorney?
When it comes to hiring a criminal defense attorney, it’s best to act as soon as possible. The longer an attorney represents you, the more they’re able to protect you. Even if you’ve been brought in for what seems like innocent questioning, having a criminal defense attorney present always increases the chance of a positive outcome.
Being charged with a crime is stressful and scary, especially if it’s your first charge. While the police may tell you that a lawyer isn’t needed, it’s always best to have an attorney who has your interests in mind present to protect you at all times. Among other things, this ensures that you don’t say something that can be used as evidence against you later. Using their experience with related cases and in-depth understanding of criminal law, criminal lawyers formulate a defense strategy and protect their clients’ rights.
