Frequently Asked Questions
When should I call a criminal defense attorney? +
Contact a defense lawyer as soon as you know you are under investigation or after an arrest. Early representation helps protect your rights and sets the tone for a strong defense.
What should I do if I am arrested? +
Remain silent except to ask for an attorney. Do not answer questions or make statements without legal counsel present. Contact Browning Law immediately.
How much does criminal defense cost? +
Criminal defense fees vary based on case complexity and charges. We offer transparent, fair pricing and payment plans. Unlike personal injury cases (contingency-based), criminal defense requires upfront payment.
Can charges be dropped or reduced? +
Yes, through negotiation, pre-trial motions, or by demonstrating insufficient evidence. See our case results for examples of dismissed charges.
What is the difference between a misdemeanor and felony? +
Misdemeanors carry lighter penalties (fines, probation, up to 1 year jail). Felonies carry serious penalties including prison time. Both require strong defense representation.
Do I need a lawyer for a DUI? +
Yes. DUI charges carry serious consequences including license suspension, fines, and jail time. Our attorneys in Idaho Falls and throughout East Idaho can help.
