What does a criminal lawyer do?
A criminal lawyer can have two different roles during a criminal trial. He can act as a defense attorney for the person who is considered the author of a crime or he can act as a plaintiff attorney, that is, as a plaintiff, that party that was affected by the crime that was committed. So that the reader has a simple idea of a criminal process without entering into technical language, you can highlight two stages within the criminal process: the criminal investigation and the oral trial. During the criminal investigation, the prosecutor and the prosecutor carry out the investigation by collecting evidence that is used to reach a guilty verdict. For his part, the defense lawyer will provide evidence to achieve the acquittal of his client, that is, the innocence of the person who is identified as the author of the crime. Finally, the oral trial is the stage where the debate takes place and the judge or judges determine whether the person is sentenced to a sentence or is definitively considered innocent.
What is Defense in trial?
Defense in trial is called, both for criminal proceedings and for any civil process, the ability of the person to defend their rights during the process. In the case of criminal law, the defense at trial will allow the innocence of the person accused of committing a crime to be defended. This task is complex since the state, which has all the resources, is the one who pursues people who commit crimes and who intends to enforce its criminal policy. The task of prosecution is in principle carried out by the prosecutor and his counterweight is the defense lawyer. Finally, the impartial judge is the actor who will determine whether the person is innocent or guilty.
