How do I find a criminal defense lawyer?

​

It is important to find an attorney that has the experience and knowledge neccessary to help you get a strong defense. Attorney David M. Wendlinger is a former Lake County Felony Prosecutor. He has handled felonies, misdemeanors and infractions in most of the courts in Lake and Porter County. He will aggressively defend your case and ensure that your rights have not been violated. He will utilize all the defenses that are available to you in an effort to get the case dismissed, obtain a not guilty verdict or to minimize potential jail time, probationary terms, fines, court costs, license suspensions, etc.

Do I really need a criminal defense attorney?

​

We hear this question often. The answer is almost always “yes”. This is because even if you are facing charges and you know that you will be facing some amount of time behind bars, the kind of punishment and the amount of time for which you can expect to spend behind bars can vary wildly. This is where a criminal defense attorney can help you. A criminal defense lawyer can help you work towards a dismissal or significant reduction of the original charges against you.
