"Are you even working on my case?"
It is one of the most common messages we receive. And it is completely understandable. 🙏
Here is what is actually happening behind the scenes.
Criminal cases move slowly by design. Status dates are typically 30 to 60 days apart. In between those dates we are working through discovery, having conversations with the state's attorney about potential offers, and building strategy around what the evidence actually shows.
Until something new happens, there is nothing new to tell you. We are not going to call just to say hello. You hired us to work, not to fill your inbox with updates that contain zero new information.
No news is not bad news. It is just the reality of how the system moves.
That said, if you are anxious, if you have questions, if something is keeping you up at night about your case, call. Text. Email. We will always provide an update on where things stand even if that update is simply that we are still waiting.
You are not being ignored. You are being represented. There is a difference. ⚖️
If you have questions about how criminal cases work or what to expect during yours, drop them in the comments.
