Contact an Orlando Criminal Lawyer Following a Failure to Appear in Court
Failing to appear in court for any scheduled appearance is not only a serious violation of the law, but it can also lead to a bench warrant issued for your immediate arrest. It can also involve costly fines and driver's licenses suspension. Failure to appear is not a minor crime and is often pursued aggressively by law enforcement, regardless of how full its dockets may be.
Being proactive is vital. The first step is contacting an experienced Orlando criminal defense attorney at The Umansky Law Firm if you failed to appear for
- A civil or criminal case
- A promise to return following a release from custody
- Traffic violation or citation
- Showing completion of court-ordered community service
- Jury summons for jury duty
