Attorney McDonough provides zealous and dedicated representation to those clients charged with crimes. This zealous representation commences at the first attorney-client meeting and, foremost, involves listening to the client about his/her view of the circumstances involving their arrest and the factual background as told from the client’s point of view.
After listening to the client, the various legal issues are discussed with the client including going over the charges together in order for the client to better understand the possible consequences of their arrest. Prior to the end of the first attorney-client meeting, the judicial process, by which the client’s case will proceed through the court system, is fully explained to the client.
Attorney McDonough has represented a substantial number of people charged with serious felony cases and limits his practice to state court in order to provide the highest standard of representation to those accused of crimes by the State of Connecticut. Every client’s case, from the less serious charges through the most serious charges, is given thorough attention; as Attorney McDonough believes that every client’s case should be as important to the attorney as it is to the client.
A thorough discussion of all aspects of the client’s case are discussed with the client including legal issues, investigative issues, strategy and the strength and weaknesses of both the state’s and the client’s cases. In addition, the client is informed, at the very first meeting, of the maximum penalties facing the client. Attorney McDonough insists that all of the client’s discussions must be based upon the client having a complete and thorough understanding of his/her case.
