Former Police Officer

Hiring an attorney who has police procedure experience could make the different between a conviction and a dismissal.

If you have been arrested or charged with a crime, you want an aggressive criminal defense attorney who is going to be able to attack or otherwise call into question the work done by the police. The simple fact is that, if your defense can show that the police conducted a shoddy investigation or didn't follow their training, your odds of a successful outcome go way up. When it comes to attacking the police investigation, there are few defense attorneys more qualified than one who is a former police officer himself.

As a former police officer, Attorney Kevin Prendergast went through the same kind of training that the police officers involved in your case went through. He learned the proper ways to conduct an investigation and also learned the many ways in which some police officers cut corners that compromise the integrity of their investigations. He also gained valuable on the job experience working with other police officers, prosecutors and court personnel – really learning the ins and outs of the criminal justice system.

These experiences allow Attorney Prendergast to thoroughly analyze your case and to discover the weak spots in the police investigation. This in turn allows him to formulate the most appropriate attack or other plan of action for your defense. This experience has also contributed greatly to his excellent track record of getting cases dismissed and getting evidence thrown out of court due to improper police conduct.

If you've been arrested or charged with a crime, you need an attorney with this kind of experience to fight for your rights from day one. Contact Attorney Prendergast today for a free consultation.
