Clearwater Warrants Attorney

Legal Assistance with Warrants

When you discover there is a warrant out for your arrest, it is crucial that you act immediately. Police could show up at your door at any time or a traffic stop can lead to being put in jail until the matter is resolved. You may be very worried about what consequences await you, but action and cooperation with a warrant matter is the best way to seek leniency and avoid spending time in jail. If you or a loved one has an outstanding warrant you should act at once and get experienced legal help in resolving this matter from a Clearwater criminal defense lawyer. In many warrant situations our team is able to resolve the situation without our client ever going to jail.

If police observe a crime taking place, they can arrest a perpetrator based on their observation of the crime. What happens when they suspect that a crime was committed outside of their direct presence or they are unable to locate you? They will then, in collaboration with the State Attorney, take this reasonable suspicion - in legal terms, known as probable cause - before a judge. The judge will determine if probable cause that a crime was committed indeed exists, and if it does, an arrest warrant will be issued and police will actively seek your arrest. You may also have a bench warrant issued directly from a judge if you fail to appear for a hearing, do not show up for a pre-assigned court date, or fail to meet a stipulation of probation.
