📜Should You Take a PLEA Deal?

Did you know that most criminal cases in Nevada never make it to trial? They’re resolved through plea deals — but that doesn’t mean you should jump at the first offer.
A plea agreement is when you agree to plead guilty or no contest in exchange for a lighter charge or reduced sentence. It can sometimes save you jail time, money, and stress. But here’s the catch: once you accept a plea, you give up important rights — including the right to trial and the chance to challenge the evidence against you. And not every “deal” is a good deal.
In Nevada, the strength of the evidence, your criminal history, and the prosecutor’s strategy all play a role in whether a plea deal makes sense.
Bottom line: Don’t agree to a plea just because it feels like the fastest way out. Always talk to a lawyer before making that decision.
