One way to find a good felony attorney is by determining how often he or she has appeared in court in the area where you were arrested. This will give you insight into their reputation within the court system, whether good or bad. Certainly, you do not want an attorney who is not liked among the prosecution and judges in the area. This could result in a bad experience for you, as some judges and prosecutors might want to take out their frustrations on the attorney’s client. Don’t allow yourself to be stuck in the middle of such a battle.
