In the Commonwealth of Virginia, these cases include but are not limited to:
When you get arrested, the police officer will collect information on you and use resources to determine if you have warrants or a prior criminal history. Based on this information, you may or may not be eligible for bail/bond.
No, federal and state laws protect your right to not speak to police, and in most cases it’s in your best interest that you don’t as anything you say can be used in court against you.
Criminal defense lawyers investigate facts to find the best way to present their client’s innocence in court, and work to minimize bail, get charges dropped, and reduce sentences.
Every situation is different but generally, it depends on the severity of the charge and the facts of the case.
Misdemeanors tend to be less serious criminal offenses that usually warrant sentences smaller than one year. Felonies, on the other hand, are more serious criminal offenses that can yield longer sentences.
State charges are arraigned in the state court system while federal charges are prosecuted by the US attorney’s office in the Federal court system.
No, as not having a clear understanding of the law can create serious consequences.
No, because every legal situation is unique, there is no way to guarantee results. Any legal professional that offers a guarantee of results isn’t being honest with you.
