Though our legal system is not perfect, it is one of the best in the world. Filled with pitfalls and complexity, only a skilled criminal defense attorney can guide you safely through the maze that is our Criminal Justice System. There are several ways an individual can be sucked into the criminal system. An individual may have made an application for a criminal arrest warrant against you, resulting in a pre-issuance hearing before a Magistrate Judges, or an office may approach you accusing you of some sort of criminal activity. As early as possible, get a lawyer as every phase of the process can be detrimental to you and yours. Remember, aside from providing basic information, name, address and identifying information, you have the right to the assistance of a lawyer, USE IT!

Once you or your loved one is arrested, this starts the criminal process. First and foremost, make no statements and begin tor process of trying to be released from police custody, bonding out. Hopefully you have contacted Kaine & Jones, LLC before this. If not, now is the time. Next will come your arraignment on the charges you have been alleged to have committed. This is a crucial point in the criminal process as certain timelines and mandatory events and requirements occur. Next comes the “discovery” period where the State discloses the evidentiary basis for the charges against you. After this comes a Calendar Call where you, through your Attorney will announce what you plan to do, negotiate a resolution to your charges or fight them at trial. If all else fails, the appellate process begins.
