How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer in New York?
Criminal defense fees depend on the charge, the court, the amount of evidence, and the work needed to protect you. A misdemeanor arrest may involve arraignment, court appearances, and negotiations. A felony case may require a full investigation, witness interviews, review of police body-camera footage, hearings to suppress evidence, expert analysis, and trial preparation.
Ask the lawyer how the fee is structured and what services it covers. Confirm whether the representation includes arraignment, bail hearings, discovery review, pretrial motions, negotiations, trial, sentencing, and appeal.
