Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Probably, though under some circumstances they may need the court's permission first.

Your lawyers are not required to work for free, regardless of how much you have already paid them, just as they could not expect you to give them unearned money regardless of how much work they had done for you.

If your case hasn't gone to trial yet, then either there is a lot more left to go than the sentencing or you have already pled guilty. Either way, though, there may be more work ahead than you realize -- especially if you plan to appeal. (Feel free to contact me if you do, since that is my specialty.)

Attorney fees are normally charged based on work done and not necessarily the benefit to you.

However, if you feel you have been over-charged, consult another attorney who charges reasonably or contact legal -aid.
