On the basis of a qualitative inquiry among French criminal lawyers, the author discusses the work of defence counsel and the question of the truth as the focus of the criminal trial. Is there such a thing as absolute truth? Is it possible to talk about judicial truth? To what extent do moral considerations influence counsel when defending a suspect or an accused individual?
Keywords: Criminal lawyers, Defence, Truth, Justice, Proof
