What Happens After I Am Charged and/or Arrested?
Timing is crucial when you are facing criminal charges. If you know you are going to be charged or arrested, you need to contact Passi & Patel before either occur. This allows us to start developing an effective strategy and preparing a strong defence to the charges. In addition, having the services of a criminal lawyer helps ensure the bail hearing process proceeds smoothly and without any complications.
If you have already been charged and/or arrested, the typical criminal process starts with a bail hearing. It is vital to have a criminal lawyer present during the bail hearing in order to increase the likelihood of being released from custody with the least amount of restrictions. Further, obtaining bail is one of the most important steps to defending your case. We can even help you in cases where a loved one or friend already had their bail hearing and their bail was denied or they were released, but have excessive restrictions.
After the bail hearing, there are several steps involved in prosecuting criminal offences, as well as various court hearings and a trial. Since every criminal offence is different, and charges brought against a person often have their own unique circumstances, it is highly recommended to consult with a qualified and knowledgeable criminal lawyer in Mississauga for specific details and information about your criminal charges, as well as potential defences to those charges.
Here at Passi & Patel, we offer a free, no obligation, and in-depth case evaluation and consultation appointment to discuss your criminal charges and options. To schedule your initial consultation appointment with one of our Mississauga criminal lawyers contact us now at 647-898-8018.
