In Shoop v. Twyford, the Supreme Court held that a defendant’s Sixth Amendment right to counsel was violated when his attorney failed to inform him of an offer from the prosecution for a plea bargain with lesser charges and penalties than those he ultimately received after trial. The court found that this failure constituted ineffective assistance of counsel because it deprived the defendant of knowledge essential to making an informed decision about whether or not to accept the plea deal. In addition, since there were no other factors present in this case which could have reasonably led defense counsel not to convey such information, it was clear that any reasonable lawyer would have done so under similar circumstances. As such, the court concluded that by failing in their duty as legal advisors and advocates for their client's best interests, defense attorneys had denied Mr. Shoop his constitutional right to effective representation at trial and thus reversed his conviction on all counts charged against him.
