Download or read book How Can You Defend Those People written by Mickey Sherman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of true crime bestsellers by Alan Dershowitz and Dominick Dunne, Mickey Sherman delivers a powerful and extraordinarily candid account of his legal career that gives the readers an all-access backstage pass to not only the sausage factory that is the criminal justice system but the “big cases” we have all lived with on TV. Sherman started his career as a public defender, then as a prosecutor, and later became a criminal defense attorney for clients such as Michael Skakel (convicted 27 years after the fact for the murder of Martha Moxley) and Alex Kelly (who, on the eve of his double-rape trial in Darien, fled to Europe for nine years). Sherman's work has been groundbreaking and sometimes controversial: the raw Court TV coverage of his successful PTSD defense of a Vietnam veteran charged with murdering an unarmed man over a parking space argument was nominated for a Cable Ace Award. When, after a mistrial due to a hung jury in a rape trial, Sherman hired one of the jurors to be his consultant in the retrial of the client, the New York Times declared he had “undercut the entire jury system.” A law was soon passed in Connecticut making Sherman's move a misdemeanor. This is both an entertaining account of how a successful attorney deals with impossible cases and clients and boldly challenges accepted laws and conventional tactics, as well as a voyeuristic glimpse into the real lives and travails of clients who represent a fascinating cross section of life.

Download or read book Secrets of Criminal Defense written by Burton Milward Jr. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-04-26 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you accused of a crime? Are you incarcerated? Are you close to someone who is? Are you a law student? (You won't find this information in law school!) Are you a practicing attorney who wants to be certain to excel in the arena of criminal defense? The secrets in this book serve as a guiding light to achieving Total Victory in the courtroom. An excellent criminal defense attorney's goal is Total Victory which means dismissal of all charges prior to trial, acquittal at trial, or reversal on appeal with directions to dismiss. A plea bargain is not Total Victory, nor can any form of win-win negotiating be Total Victory. Why should the prosecutor get anything? Every criminal case presents potential opportunities for Total Victory. An excellent criminal defense attorney knows how to transform these opportunities into actual dismissal or acquittal. When a lawyer is 100% for the client and stands up for the client to the nth degree, each secret of criminal defense is crucial. Just as a chain is no stronger than its weakest link, an excellent criminal defense attorney knows how to maximize representation in every case, never allowing a weak link. Those criminal defense attorneys who deserve the word excellent work to Win! They do everything they can think of within the law and the rules to win, and they win because they are knowledgeable and experienced with the tools and techniques and state of mind set forth in this book. Written in a clean, clear style, its also a most enjoyable read!
