Marc Alan Legget

I provide an  aggressive defense as to any and all criminal charges filed against my clients with the goal of getting  the charges dismissed, reduced and/or minimizing the consequences which might result from the charges filed. I will never advise you to accept a result that is not in your best interest.  I will however give you all the information I possess on your case, the law, the court and the process of how your case moves through the system, and the possible and likely outcomes.  I do that in order for you to make the choice you feel most comfortable with in seeking to obtain the best result for you in your mattter.

I believe that a client must be comfortable enough to discuss honestly and completely with his attorney all the facts: good,  bad and ugly.  I need my clients to be honest with me in discussing their case, because not knowing everything may give the other side an advantage that could be used against the client, or make it so I can't get the best outcome possible.  That level of comfort and trust is of crucial importance in the attorney client relationship.  In building that trust, my clients, including potential clients who are interviewing or consulting me to determine who to retain, all know that everything they divulge to me about what they said or what they did or what happened relative to charges they are facing or about their case, everything  is 100%  protected from disclosure by the attorney client privilege. That means that I can not be forced to, nor will I ever,  divulge any matters my clients have told me,  in strict confidence,  as their attorney.   Even a court can not order me to do so, and even if they did,  I still would not.  What my clients and I discuss will never be revealed unless the client tells me to.

If you have charges pending against you ,or have just been arrested and are looking for any attorney,  before hiring any attorney, meet with them, meet several actually, and ask lots of questions regarding the specific facts of your case, ask about their experience handling similar cases, their familiarity with the court and/or judge and what have been the results/outcomes of cases they've handled there.  Never hire an attorney who you don't feel comfortable fully and honestly discussing your case with and who you don't feel you can ask questions of and have them provide to you the answers you need to make decisions on your case.  Its your case and you are the one who will make decisions,  hopefully with your attorney's guidance and advice.   Always make sure that the attorney you speak with will be the attorney who is actually going to handle your matter, and that it wont be farmed out to  an appearance attorney or a still wet behind the ears, just passed the bar attorney without much experience.     At the Law Offices of Marc A. Legget, when you hire me, you get me.  I handle your case from start to finish, and I will be there for you every step of the way.

On a final, but still very important note,  if in meeting with an attorney to decide whether to hire them, if the attorney promises you a specific outcome in your case, in an attempt to get you to sign up with his firm  or to prevvent you from interviewing other attorneys to make a informed choice on who to retain, politely excuse yourself to the restroom and dont bother going back.  No attorney can, and any decent attorney won't,  guarantee any outcome in court or elsewhere.  The only guarantee they should make, and its the one that I make, is to give  you and your case the best effort possible in seeking and obtaining the  best resolution possible in light of the facts and circumstances particular to your case.

Rest assured that at the Law Offices of Marc A. Legget you will always get my best effortsand the best possible result.
