Frequently Asked Questions

Can the charges be dropped if the other person doesn't want to press charges?

Not necessarily — prosecutors decide. A lawyer can still build a defense and negotiate.

Will a domestic violence charge affect custody?

It can. Coordinate your criminal defense with any family court case.

Should I talk to the police before I have a lawyer?

You have the right to stay silent and to ask for a lawyer. Politely say you want to speak with an attorney before answering questions.

How soon should I hire a criminal defense lawyer in Aurora?

As soon as you're charged or know you're being investigated. Early help can affect bail, evidence and whether charges are filed at all.

Can a criminal charge be dismissed?

Sometimes — for weak evidence, an illegal stop or search, or through programs like pretrial diversion. A local defense lawyer can tell you what's realistic for your case.
