Under Florida law, a person who is arrested must see a judge within 24 hours. At this first appearance the court looks at the charges and decides bond and the conditions of release. A defense lawyer who is involved early can address bond, protect your rights and start building the defense.
- Stay silent about the facts of the case with police and on recorded jail calls.
- Note the details: when and where it happened and who saw it.
- Hold on to the arrest paperwork, bond papers and any court notice.
- Call the firm before your first court date.
