Let's take a look at which celebrities are in serious need of a skilled Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney. As usual, the list is quite long, with high profile individuals getting into just as much trouble as the average citizen, if not more!

Vince Neil, former front man for Motely Crue, is in need of a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney after being accused of battery by an ex-girlfriend. The woman claims Neil attacked her and her friends while they were watching a show at the Las Vegas Hilton, but Neil countered by saying it was the girl who attacked him. Recent photos have surfaced showing bloody claw marks on Neil's arm which he claims came from the woman.

George Clooney, movie star and political activist, has been brought in to testify in the trial of Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. The Prime Minister is accused of paying to have sex with a 17 year old Moroccan girl and then trying to cover it up. It is unclear what Mr. Clooney can add to the trial as he only met the Prime Minister briefly in a charity event in Sudan.

Lawrence Taylor, the former New York Giants great, was sentenced to probation only for allegedly having sex with an underage prostitute. However, the pimp who arranged the rendezvous was found guilty to one count of sex trafficking for profit. He will likely face quite a few years in federal prison and a hefty fine.

Willie Nelson will surely need a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney as he faces pot possession charges. He may only get off with a small fine after being charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession back in November after U.S. Border Patrol in Texas found the substance on his tour bus.

Angie Stone, famous for singing "No More Rain" was arrested in Georgia after she was allegedly caught speeding on a suspended license. The woman claimed to be driving to church.

Lastly, Steve-O, star of the "Jackass" show and movies was arrested in Canada for assault with a deadly weapon. However, these charges stem from an alleged incident that took place 8 years ago. As you can see, he needs a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney<'/a> for a situation he may even have forgotten about. He was stopped by customs when he got off an airplane at Calgary International Airport. A warrant was issued in 2003, but the identity of the victim and the weapon used are unknown.

As you can see, needing a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney has nothing to do with a person's income or celebrity.
