the criminal in this gets off on a technicality as the girls jewellery was found on him when he was stopped by a cop without any reason. also his confession is voided as he was on parole and the cop he confessed too did not know that and since his lawyer was not present, the confession was out too.

It is definitely not To Kill a Mockingbird, and neither of the people who suggested that have read it lately if they think your description fits that book. It's the Grisham.

I believe you are referring to "A Time to Kill" by John Grisham.
There was also a movie which was critically acclaimed. It stars Matthew McConaughey, Sandra Bullock, Samuel L. Jackson and Kevin Spacey.

Are you thinking about 'To Kill a Mockingbird' by Harper Lee??
The Lawyer's name was Atticus Finch and it is told from the perspective of his daughter, Scout. He defends a black man because his daughter was raped by two guys and then the guys wind up dead. He has to defend the black man because of his principles. Because no one else will stand up for him.
