Bench Warrants Defense Lawyer Serving San Fernando Valley

What Can Be Done About a Bench Warrant?

When someone has been charged with a crime or received probation for one and has certain terms that must be complied with following these court actions, failure to comply could lead to a bench warrant. If you have a court appearance scheduled and fail to appear, the court can issue a bench warrant for your arrest. Failing to appear in court because of personal reasons such as illness or emergency is normally not an excuse to not appear. This means that your probation officer - if you have one - can come to your door or place of work and immediately arrest you. Even a simple traffic stop by a police officer can end you up in jail. If you have failed to meet the terms of probation or parole, or even a court appearance on some other matter, you need to contact a criminal defense attorney to assist you in preventing a bench warrant from landing you in jail. Having someone come to your home or work unexpectedly is not only embarrassing, it can cost you your job and disrupt your family.
