When you fail to appear in court, the judge will issue a bench warrant for your arrest.
Hiring an experienced criminal lawyer to address the warrant will show the judge that you are ready to defend against the charges and that you intend to make all of your future court appearances. In many cases, we are able to get the warrant quashed without posting a bond. If we cannot get the bond requirement removed all together, we will fight to make sure the amount of the bond is reasonable and not excessive.
