Lubbock Solicitation Criminal Lawyer

Key Steps in the Process

• Investigation and Arrest: Law enforcement may use undercover operations or digital communications to build their case. It’s important to avoid self-incrimination during this stage and seek immediate legal counsel.
• Arraignment: This is your first court appearance, where you will hear the charges against you. With an attorney present, this step sets the stage for your defense.
• Pre-Trial Motions: This phase involves challenging the prosecution’s evidence or moving to suppress improperly obtained materials.
• Negotiation with Prosecutors: Many cases are resolved without a trial through plea agreements, often resulting in reduced charges or penalties.
• Trial: If no resolution is reached, our attorneys are prepared to take your case to court, presenting a persuasive defense backed by evidence and legal expertise.

Each stage requires a detailed understanding of Texas solicitation laws and the ability to anticipate prosecutorial strategies. At Cofer & Connelly, PLLC, we’re with you every step of the way.

Defense Strategies for Solicitation Cases

Building a strong defense tailored to your case is essential to achieving the best possible outcome. Common defense strategies include:

• Challenging Evidence: Examining the prosecution’s evidence for inconsistencies, procedural violations, or lack of credibility.
• Entrapment: Proving law enforcement induced you into committing an act you otherwise would not have committed.
• Lack of Intent: Demonstrating that your actions or words did not constitute a serious or knowing agreement to engage in solicitation.
