Uptown Lawyer: Law and Crime Book: 1

As a criminal defense attorney I search for the truth and impress on clients that I want the truth and will not continue to defend if I find a client lying to me. I will not defend a client if I think he is not telling me the truth. I will not enter a plea that I believe is not the truth (either you plea bargain or find another attorney. I like constitutional law and I continuously study criminal law. My goal is always to interpret the law so that the law will work in my favor and give my client a valid defense. If my investigation proves my client is lying to me I will terminate my association quickly which sometimes results in me having problems with the State Bar of California.
