CRIMINAL LAW

ZT Legal Group offers specialized counsel in criminal law, catering to clients globally who require expert legal representation.

Criminal law addresses the consequences of violations of statutory law, encompassing offenses ranging from serious crimes like assault and homicide to lesser infractions such as fraud and forgery.

Here’s how we can assist you in criminal matters:

Appointed Defense Counsel: If you face criminal charges, you have the right to select a defense attorney. If unsure, you can seek assistance in selecting one. It’s essential to note that you have the freedom to change your defense counsel if needed.

Appointed defense counsel is assigned by the court, with their fees typically covered through state funding, ensuring minimal direct costs for legal representation. However, potential court costs may apply if you are convicted.

Appointed Victim Counsel: If you are a victim of a crime or a close relative, you may be eligible for appointed victim counsel to guide you through criminal proceedings. This includes assistance in witness roles or pursuing compensation, which the victim counsel can help quantify and present during trial.

Compensation for Unlawful Detention: If you have been wrongfully detained or held in custody as part of a criminal case, you may be entitled to compensation for unjust detention, searches, or seizures. Compensation criteria vary by jurisdiction.

If you require legal assistance regarding criminal defense, victim representation, or any aspect of criminal law, please contact us. Our expertise in criminal law ensures robust legal representation tailored to your specific needs.
