Old & Outstanding Warrants

The weight of an outstanding warrant is crippling. The constant fear of immediate arrest and detention can stifle your career and personal life. Warrants do not vanish with time. Conversely, the ill effects are often compounded. With the efficient and knowledgeable help of an experienced attorney, warrants can be removed. The criminal defense attorneys at Bellotti Law Group, P.C. understand that warrants need to be removed as swiftly as possible to restore a life of complete freedom. We will work diligently to ensure that your past mistakes do not continue to hinder your future.

Arrest Warrants

Arrest warrants are issued when charges are filed against you through a criminal complaint or an indictment on felony charges. An arrest warrant gives police the right to detain you. Often, the negative consequences of an arrest warrant compound as more time goes by.

Default Warrants

More commonly issued default warrants are for failing to appear in court. Although they are more prevalent than arrest warrants, continued disregard of a default warrant can carry many of the same consequences as arrest warrants.

Removal Of Warrants And Beyond

The criminal defense lawyers at Bellotti Law Group, P.C. have successfully removed both types of warrants. Further, it is likely that you could be incarcerated when you appear in court and we will communicate and negotiate with law enforcement on your behalf. Once the warrant is removed, we will ensure you have the proper paperwork in case you are stopped by police who incorrectly believe the warrant is still outstanding.

Risks Warrants Carry

A life of constantly looking over your shoulder is a burden nobody should be forced to bear. Even minor offenses, which can arise in day-to-day, innocuous situations, can subject you to immediate incarceration. Imagine a simple traffic stop, speeding violation, or having your license plate randomly run by police. Recently, many criminal records have been placed online, making it increasingly difficult to evade a warrant. When discovered, you can be held until you appear before a judge or detained until you post bail. Further, your driver's license can be suspended, your ability to travel can be restricted, and background checks can reflect your open cases. The best way to avoid these penalties is to address a warrant with the help of experienced and dedicated counsel.

The criminal attorneys at Bellotti Law Group, P.C. know that dealing with a warrant is much more prudent than waiting to be exposed. Otherwise, you are running the risk of having new charges placed against you and weakening your underlying case. Often, if a warrant is for an older case, original evidence or witness testimonies may no longer be admissible, making it easier to resolve.

Probation Violations

Our lawyers are also skilled with probation violations, which can often trigger warrants. Many times, resolving these cases with minimal consequences requires knowledge of the tendencies and procedures of the particular court involved. Several of our attorneys are former prosecutors and may have worked in the court or county that issued your warrant. We will always use this experience and knowledge to help you.

Even if you've left Massachusetts, you may find that an old warrant is impeding you. With the advent of online records, states are now sharing information more easily. If you are found in another state, you can be detained until Massachusetts retrieves you, where you will likely face stiffer penalties and more severe bail conditions and fees. The attorneys at Bellotti Law Group, P.C. can help remove the warrant, ease your constant anxiety, and restore normalcy to your life. Often, we are able to resolve outstanding warrants without you needing to physically appear in court by filing a motion for a speedy trial, highlighting the hardships and expenses of your travel, and securing a waiver for you court appearance.

Outstanding warrants can be daunting and you may feel trapped with no recourse. Anxiety over old and outstanding warrants is normal. However, with proper legal assistance, an outstanding warrant can be a thing of the past. We will employ our full dedication, zeal, and legal acumen to your case. You don't have to face the legal system alone. Contact Bellotti Law Group, P.C. today to discuss your case and options.

★★★★★
I hired Peter as my attorney for a very complicated case involving misidentification for an A&B case. Peter set expectations from day one and stuck to his plan. The case ended up going to a jury trial. Peter was thoroughly prepared and was able to prove the misidentification and won the case with a not guilty verdict on all counts… I would highly recommend the Bellotti Law Group to anyone who needs a lawyer.

★★★★★
Peter Bellotti is an outstanding lawyer. I am a professional who has never been in trouble with the law and I was arrested and charged under some very unfortunate circumstances. I was devastated and talked to numerous different high-rated criminal defense attorneys. Among them Peter Bellotti stood out, he seemed to genuinely care about my case and fully understand my concerns about my reputation… My case was dismissed and I would recommend him to anyone who needs top quality legal representation.

★★★★★
I am an anxious person by nature and when I was arrested last year I thought that my life was over. The charges were very serious and I felt helpless, devastated and embarrassed…After explaining the circumstances that led to my arrest, Attorney Bellotti told me that "the charges, while serious, were defensible…” Peter was the 4th lawyer that I met with and I am so lucky to have had him on my side. I will always be grateful to Peter and I would highly, highly, highly recommend him to anyone looking for an intelligent, creative, determined and skilled attorney. Michael
