Frequently Asked Questions
These answers provide general information about common criminal-defense questions. For advice about a particular charge, consult an attorney about the facts and procedural posture of the case.
What Should I Do Immediately After Being Arrested in South Carolina?
Remain silent and request an attorney. Anything you say can be used against you, and having legal counsel early can help you understand your rights, bond proceedings, and the charges you face. Don’t discuss the case with other people or post details online before obtaining case-specific advice.
Can Your Team Pursue a Charge Reduction & Dismissal?
Depending on the evidence, prior record, charge, and circumstances, we may negotiate with prosecutors, challenge evidence, or file appropriate motions. These options aren’t available in every case, and no attorney can guarantee a reduction or dismissal.
How Do You Handle DUI & Drug-Related Cases?
Defense strategies may include reviewing the legality of the stop or search, testing procedures, charging documents, and the handling of evidence. We also evaluate whether negotiated resolutions or other case-specific options are available.
What Are My Rights During Police Questioning & Investigation?
During custodial questioning, you generally have the right to remain silent and request an attorney. The scope of those rights can depend on the circumstances and stage of the encounter, so you should obtain legal advice before answering questions about the alleged offense.
We provide focused attention and case-specific planning, with competitive pricing and multiple financing options.
