Put a Skilled Trial Lawyer to Work for You

At Acosta Law Group, we offer skilled trial lawyers who are prepared to provide the aggressive defense you need. We prepare each case for the possibility of trial and will not hesitate to fight your charges at trial if it is in your best interests. Even in cases that do not go to trial, we believe strongly that our thorough case management and determined resolve is a decided advantage for our clients.

Prosecutors know when a defendant is represented by a defense lawyer who has properly prepared a case for trial. Prosecutors know which law firms have a reputation for taking cases to trial, and which law firms will avoid trial at almost any cost.

There are times when it is in a client’s best interests not to take a case to trial, and we will provide candid advice so you can make an informed decision about your case. Where necessary, however, we will be fully prepared to fight your charges at trial to protect your rights and seek the best possible outcome for you.

To prepare for trial, we will carefully review the facts of your case to determine defenses that may be available to you. In doing so, we may identify police errors or flaws in the prosecution’s case, which may be used to your advantage. We will carefully review the facts of your case to identify if there may be ways to get your charges dismissed, suppress evidence that may have been obtained by law enforcement officers in violation of your constitutional rights or challenge evidence at trial that may be unreliable. Where necessary, we can enlist the service of forensic experts, ballistic experts and other expert witnesses that may be critical in cases involving complex scientific evidence.
