Answer: Individuals facing criminal charges have several types of defenses available to them.
These include affirmative defenses, which involve presenting evidence that justifies or excuses the alleged conduct, such as self-defense or duress. Another category is procedural defenses, which challenge the legality of the arrest, evidence collection, or trial proceedings. Additionally, individuals can use factual defenses, which dispute the accuracy of the prosecution’s claims, or insanity defenses, which argue that the defendant lacked the mental capacity to understand the nature of their actions.
Each type of defense requires careful consideration and strategic planning by experienced criminal defense attorneys to achieve the best possible outcome for the defendant.
