If authorities arrested you or a family member in Austin, here are some key steps to consider:
Exercise your right to remain silent. Avoid discussing your case with anyone except your lawyer.
Request an attorney immediately. If you can’t afford one, ask for a court-appointed lawyer.
Contact a family member or trusted friend to inform them of your situation.
Do not resist arrest or argue with law enforcement, even if you believe the arrest is unjustified.
Remember details about your arrest, including officer names and badge numbers if possible.
Attend your arraignment, where you’ll be informed of charges and can enter a plea.
Gather relevant documents and information for your case.
Follow all court orders and attend all scheduled hearings.
Consider contacting a bail bondsman if bail is set and you need assistance posting it.
Contact Lance Kennedy Law for a free consultation about potential defense strategies and the next steps in your case.
Whether you should plead guilty or not guilty is a serious legal decision that requires careful consideration of the specific details of your case. This choice can have major consequences for your future.
The best course of action is to consult criminal defense attorney Lance Kennedy, who can review the evidence, charges, and circumstances of your case. I’ll examine your case at no cost, advise you on the potential outcomes of different pleas, and help you make an informed decision. Contact Lance Kennedy Law as soon as possible so we can get started on your case.
Three things: Contact a criminal defense lawyer in your county and then call a bail bondsman to see about getting your friend or family member released.
Tell your friend or family member not to answer any questions about the incident and to ask for a lawyer, which should stop any police questioning.
Instead of waiting out the resolution of your case in jail, bail allows you to be released if you put up a financial deposit as a promise to appear in court.
Typically, people accused of a crime hire a bail bondsman. The bondsman will pay the county the entire bail amount in exchange for you paying the bondsman 10% of the bond.
For example, a typical aggravated assault bond in Comal County is $30,000. You can pay that amount to the county to get released, and the bail bondsman will refund it to you after your case is over.
Or you can pay a bail bondsman a non-refundable fee of $3000 (10% of the bail amount) in exchange for them posting the entire amount.
Yes. I typically require half the fee to be paid up front, and clients can pay the balance over time.
We understand that facing criminal charges can be overwhelming and stressful. As dedicated federal criminal defense attorneys with years of experience, we are committed to providing personalized legal counsel for your defense. Our approach is tailored to meet your unique needs, ensuring that you have an ally to help get your life back.
