Frequently Asked Questions about Criminal Defense in Hopewell Township, NJ

Do I need to talk to a criminal defense attorney if I haven’t been arrested for anything yet?

If you haven’t been arrested but know or believe that you may be under criminal investigation as a person of interest or a suspect, you should still speak to a Hopewell Township criminal defense attorney about your case. By having a legal advocate on your side during an investigation, you may be able to provide information or evidence to dispel any criminal suspicion of you and avoid an arrest. If necessary, your attorney can also prepare you for being charged with a crime and arrange for you to avoid being suddenly arrested at your home or place of work.

Can I get my charges dismissed if the police conducted a search without a warrant?

Although police are typically required to obtain a warrant before searching a person, their vehicle, their home, or their office, there are many exceptions in the law to this constitutional requirement. For example, police may search your person once they have placed you under arrest. Police may also be entitled to search your vehicle without a warrant during a traffic stop when they have probable cause to believe that contraband or evidence of a crime will be found in the vehicle. Police can also enter a home without a warrant if they reasonably believe that someone inside is in need of assistance.
