Why You Must Hire a Former Local DA
Every lawyer at Newby Lindley Slater is a former DA in Colorado Springs. Why is that a benefit to you? There are nuances and realities of the criminal justice process that aren’t necessarily found in books or statutes. Every jurisdiction in Colorado has its own rules and procedures, every prosecutor and DA has their own way of pursuing convictions, and every judge brings their own perspective and preferences to the cases they hear. Knowing these unwritten, local rules can be as crucial as knowing the written laws, and the ability to turn those nuances into an advantage is something that only comes from experience, and sets the best DUI lawyers and criminal defense attorneys apart from their peers.
