New York City Criminal Defense Lawyer
24 Hour New York Criminal Defense Lawyer - Arrest & Arraignment information
If you are arrested in the state of New York the law requires that you be taken in front of the court for arraignment purposes within 24 hours from the time of your arrest. This is the initial step in a criminal proceeding, but its importance is not to be underestimated. This first opportunity to come before the judge is not only for the purpose of hearing the charges that are being brought against you, but it is also a chance for the judge to either release you on your own recognizance or on bail, or order you to remain in jail until there is a resolution of your case. Having an experienced and knowledgeable New York criminal defense attorney with you at the initial New York arraignment hearing can make a significant difference in the outcome of that hearing and in getting you or your loved one out fast.
After your arrest and before you are brought in front of the court for your initial arraignment, there is very little time to prepare a defense to present on your behalf. The sooner you contact our skilled attorney to help you make a case for bail and/or your release, the more time there will be to plan a successful strategy. Don't risk your chance to be released on bail by not having the appropriate legal representation in place heading into your arraignment. You only get one chance at securing your release. Make the smart decision. Call us now!
