ATTORNEY PAT RIGGS is In long term partnership with the best experts in criminal defense practice

Bail profesionals

One of the most important relationships in criminal defense is a 24/7 speed-dial working relationship with a bail agent who has experience throughout the state. Many of my cases have bails in excess of 1 million dollars so you profit from having access to an bail bond agency that knows the territory.

In many instances, the agent we recommend can quote you reasonable bail premiums, show quickly, and post bond, ASAP.

Finally, to avoid arrest at your work, home or other social setting, we routinely arrange a "self surrender" with the law enforcement agency and have the bail bond agent present to get you in and out and back to freedom within a couple of hours.

INVESTIGATIONS

In today's world, the Constitutional concept of "innocent until proven otherwise" got lost somewhere in the criminal justice system. Typically, reality demands that the defense attorney goes on the offense. With the help of our "Death Penalty Certified" investigator we put the police case to the test.

Confirming or countering the police investigation is the best way to leverage your criminal case. Most attorneys never investigate anything, and during negotiations propose worn-out & meaningless phrases like he or she "turned their life around" or trash the so called victim. Such tactics fall on deaf  prosecutorial and judge's ears. This does little to put you and your case in the best possible light.

When appropriate--which is very often, we partner with the best when it comes to investigation of the facts.
