If you have been
arrested for a misdemeanor or felony (other than DUI), the first piece of
advice I have is this. DO NOT TALK TO THE POLICE! It never helps. They
seek only to get incriminating information. Your natural inclination is
to talk. DON'T.
You will be given bail and the right to make a phone
call. Call your lawyer to arrange bail. Lawyers typically work with
reputable bail bondsmen. Your family will not make such a wise choice,
and the next thing you know, the bail bondsman owns your mother's home.
It is better to have a lawyer arrange bail than you yourself or your
family. Your lawyer will likely get a better rate, and you personally
will get better service. The bail bond company I work with is top-notch
and open 24 hours a day, every day.
If you are charged with a
misdemeanor or felony, it is best to hire a lawyer. There may be
immigration consequences if you are a non-citizen, and typically you
will get a better result if you have a lawyer fighting for your rights.
Each case is different because each fact pattern is different. I
offer a free consultation and will help you make the right choice.
Men who have been arrested for a sex crime, whether it is
statutory rape, date rape, sexual battery, or forcible rape, will face
aggressive prosecution from law enforcement and district attorneys. All
sex crime charges are taken very seriously by the State of California,
especially if the sexual offense involved a victim who was under 18
years old. If the victim is under 14 years old, you are in very serious
trouble and are likely looking at life in prison.
If you are accused of
a sex crime, it is important that you immediately speak with an
experienced criminal defense attorney. Even if you are innocent, you
will need advice and direction from a lawyer who has successfully
represented clients who have been accused of a sex crime. Without such
guidance, you will have a difficult time contesting the criminal
charges.
Sex crime cases demand an extensive evaluation of the facts,
in-depth interviews of the accuser and witnesses, analysis of forensic
evidence, and complicated stereotypes must be addressed. Men especially
are behind the eight-ball when charged with a sex crime. With the help
of an experienced attorney, you stand a better chance of fighting your
charges both in and out of court.
