Violent Crimes
Many people facing an assault charge ask the question, “Do I need a lawyer for an violent crime charge?” The answer is a resounding “Yes”. In many cases, there is not enough evidence to prove that a crime occurred. The prosecuting attorney will go to great lengths to convince you that they have the evidence to obtain a guilty verdict.
Without the knowledge and the reputation of an experienced criminal lawyer, the accused in an criminal case stands little chance against the prosecutor. Without a lawyer, the accused will not be taken seriously by either the judge or the prosecutor. A lawyer who is experienced in defending violent crime charges will know exactly what the prosecutor needs to prove their case against you and will expose the weaknesses of their case against you.
With years of experience as criminal defense attorney, Rick Oliver will make sure that you aren’t found guilty of false accusations of a violent crime.
A criminal conviction can be subject to reversal for any number of reasons. Often, the issues that could lead to reversal are nuanced legal issues that can only be identified by an experienced professional. Rick Oliver Attorney at Law has the knowledge and experience needed to identify and present complex legal issues to the appropriate appellate court for meaningful review.
Rick Oliver Law Firm
Rick was licensed to practice law in the state of Texas in 2007 and began his solo practice on June 1, 2008. Rick did not come from a family of wealth or of lawyers. When he started, he did not know a single attorney–let alone a criminal defense attorney–in the City of Houston. He built the foundation of a successful practice with little more than a code book and a can-do attitude.
