Will I be arrested soon or is there a chance charges could be dropped because it wasn't a case that was worth it?

Criminal Law lawyer at The Montes Law Firm
It's possible, but I would not count on them forgetting about it. They have two years to bring a criminal charge against you. But to give you perpective, there are people arrested for stealing 51.00 dollars from a store. You just have to wait. Good luck.

Can my child be removed from school grounds and questioned by detectives and judge?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
Sounds like your child was under 17 and thus was taken before a magistrate before being questioned which is the proper manner in which to handle such matters by police. They do not have to notify you of their intent, nor allow them to call their parents. Parents are to be notified afterwards. The interviews are recorded so if Miranda rights were not given and the person was a suspect, any inculpatory statement can be suppressed. If they have been charged, they need lawyers. They can be told that in the future they do not have to cooperate with the police if interrogated and they have the right to request a lawyer.

Do you have the right to defend yourself when someone threatens to take your life?

Mark R. Thiessen
Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen
Criminal Law lawyer at Thiessen Law Firm
Absolutely. You can defend yourself with what force is being threatened against you. So if someone wants to fist fight, you can't shoot them. But if someone brings a gun and points it at you, you can kill them any way possible, i.e grenade.

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
