Facing Criminal Charges in Pennsylvania

Steps to take when arrested in Berks County

Arrest in Berks County or anywhere in Pennsylvania means legal trouble, and that means contacting an attorney as soon as possible.

Protecting you and your rights is the job of an experienced defense lawyer.  If arrested, retaining an attorney focused solely on criminal defense is essential.  If facing criminal charges in Reading, Kutztown, or elsewhere in Pennsylvania, consider the ways legal counsel[H1] can help:

• Legal counsel is necessary—even if you are innocent.  Arrest is the initiating action of a journey through the Pennsylvania criminal justice system.  An attorney skilled with criminal law handles any kind of criminal charge—even a false charge—and works to get charges dismissed, reduced, or handled appropriately.
