Myths Page 2
5. Many believe that former federal prosecutors make better federal
criminal defense attorneys. That simply is a myth. Past experience
as a federal prosecutor may or may not equate with the type of
experience necessary for an attorney to be an effective criminal
defense attorney in the United States District Court. Having been a
former federal prosecutor only assures you that your attorney has
put away a good number of people just like you. He or she may well
have changed and is truly a defense attorney in his or her blood,
but be careful that a former federal prosecutor did not just change
hats in order to drive a Mercedes as opposed to a VW.
