Frequently Asked

Criminal Defense & DUI Questions Answered

Should I talk to police without a lawyer?+

No. In Pennsylvania (and everywhere in the U.S.), you have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. Politely decline questioning and ask to speak with a lawyer immediately.

What is ARD in Philadelphia DUI cases?+

Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition (ARD) is a pretrial diversion program available to many first-time DUI offenders in Pennsylvania. Successful completion can lead to your record being expunged. Eligibility is complex — an attorney can quickly assess whether you qualify.

How much does a criminal defense attorney cost?+

Fees vary based on charge severity, complexity, and whether the case goes to trial. Many attorneys in our network offer payment plans or flat fees. The initial case review is always free.

Can charges be dropped or reduced?+

Yes — this happens frequently. Weak evidence, procedural errors, illegal searches, and successful negotiations regularly result in reduced or dismissed charges. Every case is different, and speed matters.

How long does a Philadelphia criminal case take?+

Summary offenses can resolve in weeks. Misdemeanors typically take a few months. Felonies or trials can extend a year or longer. Your attorney will give you a realistic timeline early on.

Will I go to jail?+

It depends on the charge, your record, and how the case is defended. Many first-time offenses in Philadelphia resolve with probation, diversion, or reduced charges — but you need an experienced attorney to protect your options.

What if I already have a court date scheduled?+

Contact an attorney today. Do not miss the date under any circumstances, and never appear without representation for anything more serious than a minor summary.

Do you handle charges in New Jersey and Delaware?+

Yes. NJ (Superior Court / Municipal Court) and DE (Court of Common Pleas / Superior Court) each have their own DUI thresholds, diversion programs (like NJ's PTI or DE's First Offenders Program), and license consequences. We match you with an attorney admitted in the state where you were charged.
