Below is a snip out of a great article on how a lawyer can truly effect your case positively and negatively. In the story below the lawyer affected this woman's case in a very negative way. "Baby Gabriel Johnson's mother claims in a seven-page letter that her former defense attorneys dropped the ball on a motion to dismiss charges in her case, putting her case in peril.
