Lafayette Criminal Lawyer

Striving everyday to provide justice for those accused of felonies and misdemeanors

Welcome to James Kirk Piccione. Like most people, I’ve watched YouTube. And I’ve seen videos about the law presented by both lawyers AND non-lawyers. But when I decided to start making videos of my own, I began looking at other lawyer’s videos with a critical eye. And I noticed two things. Either the content was all about the lawyer, patting himself on the back, telling you how great he is, which is essentially just an advertisement. Or if it did talk about the law, it was very superficial. So, I decided to make a series of videos about the most FAQs people present to me as a lawyer. A series of videos with in-depth answers. And in-depth explanations of the law and how it applies to you. Knowledge is power. And the more you know about the law and about situations with legal implications, the more control you will have over the situation and over your own outcome. I’m Kirk Piccione with the law firm of Piccione & Piccione. I practice law with my wife Brenda Piccione in Lafayette Louisiana. If you’re from the Acadiana area, you’ve heard of the Piccione Family of lawyers. My father and uncle were the first Piccione lawyers. They established a reputation for honesty, integrity, and the kind of no BS law practice you would expect of the greatest generation. We have tried to emulate their example and carry on their reputation. So sit back and enjoy. And help us spread the knowledge by liking and sharing our videos and subscribing to our channel. Thanks.

The playing field

Top 10 Reasons Not to Talk to the Police

We count on law enforcement to protect our rights and safety. For most people, the police represent a lifetime of security with only the occasional interaction along the way, if any at all. But when the tables turn and we find ourselves suspected of a crime, the law officers may employ nearly any measure to get the information they need, whether it infringes on our rights or not. The police know the law better than the average person does, and they can easily use it against us. The unrepresented person has little bargaining power and no expertise in their own defense.

This disparity makes an unleveled playing field. At the Law Office of Kirk Piccione, we can help you level that playing field.
