At Witt Law Firm, P.A., we are experienced in both District and Superior Criminal Court. Let us stand up for your rights in Court. Don't make a mistake that can last a lifetime by representing yourself when experienced local counsel can make all the difference in the world. Criminal convictions don't just fall off your record after a certain number of years. Many convictions can never be expunged, which is why it is so important to push the District Attorney for a dismissal or reduction whenever possible. The District Attorney is not your friend- have someone on your side when you go in front of a Judge. We always offer a free consultation for any pending criminal charge. Never walk into Court without experienced legal counsel on your side, regardless of whether you are charged with a simple misdemeanor or serious felony. Below are some frequently asked questions and answers.

Do I need a lawyer?
If you are charged with a criminal offense you should always at least speak with a lawyer. Many law firms like this office offer a free consultation for criminal matters.
What if I can't afford a lawyer?
If you are unable to hire your own lawyer you may be eligible for a Court appointed lawyer. Generally speaking, any lawyer (even a bad one) is better than no lawyer.
When is my Court date?
You may find your criminal Court date online via the NC AOC Court date lookup.
What if I can't make my Court date?
Depending on the charge a lawyer may be able to appear on your behalf. Never miss Court without clearance from the District Attorney or else you may end up with an Order for your Arrest.
