Long Island, NY-- Being charged with a crime in New York can have severe consequences. Few people are more aware of this better than Long Island criminal attorney Jason Bassett. The effects of being convicted of a crime could be dire and can sometimes even change the trajectory of a person's entire life. Mr. Bassett believes that nobody ought to face the criminal justice system on their own and without the benefit of a competent and experienced criminal defense lawyer.
As an experienced criminal attorney, Mr. Bassett knows that the quality of criminal defense that an individual gets if they are charged with a crime can make a significant difference. Whether the charges get dismissed, downgraded, a plea deal is offered to the defendant, or if they wind up in jail or prison and for what length of time, can often depend upon the work of their defense lawyer. Whether a person has been charged with robbery, assault, murder, domestic violence, or even a DWI or DUI, a criminal charge and conviction can haunt them for years to come. This is why it is crucial to have the representation of someone with the knowledge, experience, and determination to fight for the offender's rights.
"Although criminal penalties and prison time are difficult enough, the way criminal convictions and charges affect the rest of the suspect's life can be similarly destructive," stated Mr. Bassett. "An offender can be punished and serve their time, and yet for the rest of their life, there is a reminder that they are still considered a criminal in society's eyes. A criminal charge can affect an individual's future work, academic opportunities, professional licenses and certifications, and involvement in specific government programs. Each time that person gets a job, the prospective employer will take a look at them differently. A well-crafted criminal defense is critical to secure my customers not only from the criminal punishment itself but also these other long-lasting collateral repercussions."
As a former prosecutor, Mr. Bassett has observed the other side of the criminal justice system and the way numerous defendants feel they lack power within the system. He has turned his sights to criminal defense in order to level the playing field and protect the rights of those who have been charged at both the state and federal levels. Both other attorneys and clients continue to provide favorable testimonials and reviews when it comes to their work together.
Predovic Bray from Long Island states, “Definitely remarkable service. Jason and his team were really communicative and available whenever you need them. Their representation is truly life-saving. They were professional and assuring at the same time. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a criminal lawyer.”
