Q. What should I wear to court? You should dress like you're going to meet the President of the United States, or going on a professional job interview. You only get to make a first impression once; the judge and prosecutor will be looking at your attire. We will discuss the specifics of what you should wear for court. Your attire should be an asset to resolving your case in a favorable way, not a hinder to success.
Q. Will I have to speak in court? For arraignment and pre-trial court dates, you will have to say very little in court. Be prepared to say "yes your honor" and "no your honor". If you're pleading to a charge or being sentenced, then I will prepare you for what you will need to say. The only time you will speak more than a few sentences is if your case goes to trial, and you take the witness stand in your own defense.
