Depends. Every case and every client is different.

Not before discussing your case with an experienced attorney. Accepting a plea deal is the same as admitting guilt. Although you may receive a lesser sentence, you’ll still be left with a criminal record that can be more damaging to your future than served penalties. It’s well worth your time to explore all of your options before accepting a plea deal.
Even if you’re set on pleading guilty, you should always consult an attorney before entering your guilty plea. Their legal knowledge can help reduce or remove penalties completely from what would otherwise be harsh consequences for the crime committed.
Proving guilt “beyond a reasonable doubt” refers to the standard of proof the prosecution must meet in a criminal case. The standard of proof is the level of certainty each juror must have before determining that a defendant is guilty of a crime.
The jury listens to the evidence during a trial, decides what facts the evidence has established, and draws inferences from those facts to form the basis for their decision. The jury decides whether a defendant is “guilty” or “not guilty.” A jury is a group of people summoned and sworn to decide on the facts in issue at a trial.
