Tyrrell County Lawyers

It’s entirely normal if you’re a bit anxious about pending criminal charges. No one wants to be thought as a “criminal” or deal with the embarrassment of an arrest.

That’s as true in Raleigh or Charlotte as it is in small-town North Carolina. If anything, the effect of gas station magazines like Busted or the different media mugshots websites in Tyrrell County tend to be magnified when everyone knows you and your business.

People talk. Just being charged, let alone arrested and taken to jail, can be a tough reputation to shake. It doesn’t matter if you got arrested in Columbia NC for “drunk driving” or some felony or misdemeanor criminal charges, you need to take the allegations seriously and see if there is any legal basis to get the charges dismissed.

Your name is on the line. If you need to find a loved one who might be in jail in Tyrrell County, click here.

Can I Get My Charges Thrown out?

Each case is different, just like everyone needing a criminal lawyer has their own individual needs and goals. It’s a mistake to assume the DA’s Office will just enter a dismissal because you’re a nice person or have never been in trouble before.

Law enforcement, including local police officers and Highway Patrol officers in Tyrrell County, as well as prosecutors and judges, take criminal charges seriously. You should too!

The first step in addressing criminal allegations is seeking legal representation. We’re here to help people through difficult times. We’ll help explain the legal system, the best-case and worse-case scenarios, and your legal options.

What Does Indicted Mean?

“A lot of the anxiety over getting arrested and taken to jail involves not knowing what’s going to happen. Obviously, people are worried about their futures and what things will cost. We’ll go over all that with you.”

– Danny Glover, Tyrrell County Criminal Lawyer

Do I Have to Talk to Police?

You are never required to give a statement to police. In fact, generally speaking, it’s rarely a good idea to engage with law enforcement if they come asking questions.

That doesn’t mean you should be rude or otherwise impolite. If police officers are asking to ”get your side of the story” chances our they’re at least a little bit suspicious that you may have done something wrong, something illegal.

It’s important you understand some basics of the NC criminal laws and how law enforcement enforces those laws. Police officers are allowed to mislead you. Put simply, they’re allowed to lie.

So, where it could be illegal for you to purposely provide inaccurate or false information to police, they’re allowed to lie to you to catch people breaking the criminal laws in NC. .

For you, that might be considered Resisting or Obstructing Justice. If a police officer doesn’t tell the truth, that’s considered “doing my job to catch the ‘bad guys.’”

People Make Mistakes. That Doesn’t Mean You’re “Bad.”

Whether you realize it or not, there tends to be an “Us vs. Them” mentality associated with law enforcement officers. In fact, that’s true about society as a whole.

People may think it’s funny if someone gets locked up. Maybe they feel you deserve it.

The court of public opinion rarely is fair or just. Clearing your good name, especially if you’ve made a mistake, can be a long, difficult task. The idea that you’re innocent until proven guilty goes out the window pretty fast.

That‘s one reason we think it’s a good idea to have an experienced criminal defense lawyer standing by your side in court. It’s important to make you, your case, and your future something more than a joke or source of embarrassment.

Defense attorneys do more than explain the law to clients or negotiate plea deals. We work hard to personalize our clients, to shed the assumptions associated with being charged with a crime, and most importantly, remind everyone involved you a person, not a “bad guy.”
