Criminal Defense Lawyer in Cumming

Question: If no warrent was issued and the person in prison. Is this legal and is he or she entitle to a retril where a warrent would be issued?

Answer: No warrant is required IF the grand jury returned a direct indictment. Here is the reality: the person is in prison. He either had a jury trial, which means evidence was presented, or he entered a guilty plea, which means he knows he did it. Now, you are asking about a warrant for an arrest for the case for which he is serving a prison term.

About Me

I hung a shingle in February 2000, because I saw that individuals charged with criminal offenses were being underserved by the attorneys practicing criminal law. Since February 2000, I have represented more than two thousand criminal clients. I only practice criminal law, but I do everything from violations of probation to Supreme Court appeals. There are few attorneys under the age of sixty that have my level of experience. I have tried more than two hundred major felony jury trials. I have tried more than fifty misdemeanor jury trials. In Philadelphia as a prosecutor, I tried more than two thousand bench trials. I have conducted more than three thousand preliminary hearings and bond hearings. Yet, I still have the energy at forty-five to serve my current clients. There is nothing that will occur in a courtroom that I have not experienced before. When you are looking for an attorney, experience is everything.
