Plea For Mercy: The Anatomy of The Federal Plea (Paperback)

Many criminal cases are resolved out of court through what is known as plea bargaining. For practical reasons, the plea bargaining process resolves most criminal cases filed. John G. DeGirolamo, Esq. lives his career with a deep passion for seeing everyone has the opportunity for the best possible legal representation. That passion is more than evident in the pages of "Plea For Mercy: The Anatomy Of The Federal Plea." The book's pages are filled with the opportunity not only for laypersons to gain a deeper awareness, but attorneys on both sides of the aisle to recognize effective plea bargaining as both an art and a science. Plea for Mercy is a comprehensive, up-to-date guideline on the subject; teaching those in the profession to negotiate the best deal for their clients. The author provides an honest discussion of the nature, types and goals of plea bargaining, and offers a variety of styles and strategies not often taught. Words like analysis, negotiation process, plea policies, standards and rules are the foundation of DeGirolamo's extensive work.
