Jason Bassett, Long Island Criminal Attorney, Receives Another Encouraging Client Review

Long Island, NY-- Being charged with a crime in New York can have serious repercussions. Few people are more aware of this better than Long Island criminal attorney Jason Bassett. The impacts of being convicted of a crime could be dire and can in some cases even alter the trajectory of an individual's entire life. Mr. Bassett believes that nobody needs to deal with the criminal justice system alone and without the advantage of a competent and experienced criminal defense lawyer.

As an experienced criminal attorney, Mr. Bassett knows that the quality of defense that an individual gets if they are charged with a crime can make a significant difference. Whether the charges get dismissed, reduced, a plea deal is presented, or if they end up in prison or jail and for what length of time, can typically depend on the work of their defense lawyer. Whether a person has been charged with robbery, assault, homicide, domestic violence, or perhaps a DWI or DUI, a criminal charge and conviction can haunt them for years to come. This is why it is important to have the representation of someone with the knowledge, experience, and perseverance to fight for the defendant's rights.

"While criminal penalties and jail time are tough enough, the way criminal charges and convictions affect the rest of that suspect's life can be equally disastrous," said Mr. Bassett. "An accused can be penalized and serve their time, and yet for the rest of their life, there is a reminder that they are still thought of as a criminal in the eyes of society. A criminal charge can impact an individual's future employment, academic options, professional licenses and certifications, and involvement in certain government programs. Each time that person applies for a task, the prospective employer will take a look at them in a different way. A well-crafted criminal defense is vital to secure my customers not just from the criminal penalty itself but also these other long-lasting collateral consequences."

As a former prosecutor, Mr. Bassett has witnessed the other side of the criminal justice system and the way numerous defendants feel they are without power within the system. He has since turned his sights to criminal defense so as to help level the playing field and protect the rights of those who have been charged with a crime at either the federal or state level. Both clients and other attorneys continue to offer favorable reviews and testimonials when it comes to their work together.
