Fort Worth Bench Warrant Attorney

Information about Bench Warrants

A bench warrant differs from a standard arrest warrant in that it is issued by a judge rather than the police, and is not always associated with criminal charges.  It can be issued for conduct that occurs in a courtroom, civil matters, and also for failing to appear in court or ignoring a court summons.  The warrant allows law enforcement officers to arrest the individual named at any time in any place, though such warrants are not often at the top of their priority list, unless the warrant is for a serious offense.  Failure to address a bench warrant in a timely fashion can lead to serious penalties, including heavy fines, jail time, or other consequences.  Because of this, it is highly advised you contact a Fort Worth criminal defense attorney right away if you have an outstanding bench warrant.  They will be able to advise you as to how to proceed and may be able to get your warrant recalled.
