10. Guy Vitetta: Some people feel that they can get a better deal by cutting out the lawyer and negotiating directly with the prosecutor. There are two problems with this approach. The first is that the defendant will have no bargaining power. If negotiations fall through, the defendant is unable to effectively use the jury trial process to either get the prosecutor to give a better deal or attempt to obtain an outright acquittal from a jury of his or her piers. The second problem is that the job performance of a prosecutor is largely determined by the percentage of convictions they obtain in relation to all outstanding indictments. Prosecutors are generally reluctant to dismiss indictments without very good reason based on the law presented by an experienced defense attorney.
