Why Hire a Criminal Defense Attorney?
Having a criminal defense lawyer on your side can help you navigate through a complicated and intricate legal system. A good attorney will be familiar with the laws and procedures governing various charges and offenses, allowing them to work closely with you every step of the way. They can also assist in plea bargaining, which is when an offender agrees to plead guilty or no contest to certain charges in exchange for reduced penalties or a dismissal of other charges.
Having an experienced legal counsel by your side can make the process much less stressful while providing you with effective representation. Criminal lawyers are trained professionals who are well-versed in courtroom procedures and strategies that could help your case.
Finally, a criminal defense attorney can provide you with much-needed advice on your rights and responsibilities during the course of the trial. They play an essential role in helping ensure that your case is heard fairly and justly.
We are here to help tell your side of the story. Call (515) 329-3100 now to begin discussing your case with our experienced criminal defense lawyers in Des Moines.

What Our Criminal Defense Lawyers Could Do for You
Every criminal defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty through either a guilty plea or verdict. To obtain a conviction during a trial, the prosecution must present evidence demonstrating guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. We utilize a wide array of strategies to cast doubt on the prosecution’s evidence against you.
After carefully reviewing evidence in your case, we can help make an informed decision about how to proceed. Sometimes the road leads to negotiations for a fair plea bargain. Sometimes we attack the constitutionality of a search (suppression). Sometimes the best path is to attack the prosecution’s case in the courtroom to defend your innocence.
Branstad & Olson recognizes there are a number of considerations far before trial or plea negotiation. We can also assist in requesting release from custody and bond reductions as you await trial.
We Take Your Situation Seriously
If you have been charged with a crime, you may face a range of serious consequences, including: probation, driver’s license suspension, hefty fines, and even long-term imprisonment. We understand that your future is important. Our defense team is dedicated to exploring every option.
