Brooklyn Arrest

An Arrest is a frightening experience. Perhaps you or your loved one encountered an unfortunate situation beyond your control, or were questioned by the police and then were arrested (as would be the case with a DWI), or the Arrest was the consequence of a Gun Crime, Warrant or a simple traffic ticket. Whatever the situation was that led to the Arrest, it is important to remember that you are innocent until proven guilty. If you are concerned that you or your loved one will be, or already has been arrested, it is highly recommended that you speak with a Brooklyn Arrest Lawyer. It is important remember that your 5th Amendment right to remain silent, and your right to counsel are available to you. Any information you provide to the police or the District Attorney can become part of your case, and could be misconstrued or misunderstood. A Brooklyn Criminal Lawyer will be instrumental in guiding you through this process, ensure that your rights are protected. These protections are available to you regardless of whether the Arrest took place in a police precinct for accusations pertaining to an Assault or perhaps a Domestic Violence case, or a felony matter, which may include violations involving a Sex Crime, like a Sexual abuse case and/or Child Pornography case. An Arrest can also take place in the Federal Court system for a White Collar Crime. This would include crimes such as Securities Fraud, Bank Fraud and/or Mail Fraud to name a few. If you are dealing with a Federal Court matter it is recommended that you contact a New York Federal Criminal Lawyer to assist you. These types of cases can be stressful and intimidating, and you will need the assistance of counsel to help you properly handle a case brought by the Federal Government. Stephen Bilkis & Associates, PLLC is ready to lend you legal counsel and advice in these matters. Our office offers a completely fee initial case consultation with your first appointment.

If you have received a Desk Appearance Ticket or DAT, you have experienced an Arrest. With a DAT however, you are not taken into custody to await your Arraignment. Rather, you will appear at your Arraignment hearing at the time designated on your ticket.

Brooklyn Central Booking is located at 120 Schermerhorn Street, between Adams and Smith Street. If you are attempting to locate a loved one that you suspect may have been arrested, you can call them directly at (718) 935-9210. If they have in fact been arrested, you can expect that they will be held for a maximum of 24 hours prior to their Arraignment. During this crucial time, it is imperative that you or your loved ones are well advised of their rights.

The arresting authorities are able to question any defendant that they suspect has committed a crime. This power has been recently expanded to be more consistent and far reaching. This means that the District Attorney or interrogating officer now has more leeway to question each an every defendant in custody, and record those conversations. During this critical time it is now even more important to secure the consult of a Criminal Lawyer. Having counsel present will prevent these interrogations from happening. When your New York Criminal Lawyer is representing you, any questioning will be prohibited from taking place, and the District Attorney or police will be prevented from engaging you in any type of questioning.

The entire Arrest process is intimidating and emotionally stressful. Dealing with the Brooklyn Criminal Court can be extremely complicated without the aid of a Brooklyn Arrest Lawyer. Undergoing an Arrest brings forth many issues that need to be legally addressed. The Law Offices of Stephen Bilkis & Associates, PLLC are ready to provide help and legal advice during this trying time. We are able to offer you a free consultation and support. We have offices conveniently located not only in Brooklyn but throughout the New York City including Manhattan, the Bronx, as well as Westchester County, Suffolk County and Nassau County.
