- You don’t know what they know:
Lawyers went to school for years for a reason. Most have extensive experience tailored to your cases needs. Trying to learn all of this yourself is impossible and exhausting. Private attorneys often take priority on busy days in court while people representing themselves can be pushed to the bottom of the roster. Time is money. You’ll be wasting your own time by not hiring an attorney. Judges can be very impatient with people that do not understand the legal processes and jargon. - You’ll mess up:
Documents, procedures, and policies aren’t exactly layman knowledge. Chances are, you’re not aware of most of it. You could get yourself thrown out of court for simple mistakes, depending on the judge. An attorney will handle all of this, and guide you through the case: review the evidence, investigate your specific situation, and lay out your worst and best case scenarios. - Dismissal is more likely with an attorney:
An attorney knows if there is any legal basis for having your case dismissed or reduced. A defense attorney will be able to see the case against you is as strong as you think. They can have evidence excluded/included with their professional knowledge. An attorney is also the best way to argue for minimum consequences if you’re convicted, including community service or probation instead of jail time.
