i think it’s about the people themselves
00:06
i was a therapist before was a lawyer so
00:08
i have a sense of what people’s personal
00:10
emotional experience might be with this
00:13
type of a serious event in their lives
00:15
not only their lives but the lives of
00:17
their families so it’s important for us
00:19
to keep the communications open and to
00:21
consider their
00:23
passion and their concern for what’s
00:25
happening to them so that’s part of what
00:27
our philosophy has been is to
00:28
communicate and to care about the client
00:30
and the family
00:36
well i do a lot of the federal work here
00:38
and when you’re dealing with a
00:39
prosecutor whether it’s federal or state
00:41
the most important part is to open the
00:42
door for communication and to be honest
00:45
with them about what you see is
00:46
mitigating factors in the case and to
00:48
try to offset some of the aggravating
00:50
factors when you have those open
00:51
conversations with the prosecutors you
00:53
sometimes can get more than you think
00:55
you can and i think it’s about a
00:57
relationship that you develop with
00:59
honesty and so that’s how we approach
01:01
our prosecutors and trying to get them
01:03
on board to see both the good and the
01:05
bad of the case because the cases aren’t
01:06
all good they’re partly bad so you want
01:08
to try to get the best outcome you can
01:10
for your client with that kind of
01:11
communication

Atlanta, GA criminal defense attorney Marcia G. Shein shares the philosophy of her practice as well as her approach to dealing with prosecutors.
