Schwertner, TX Criminal Defense Law Firms & Lawyers

There is not supposed to be anyone present to overhear discussions between a prisoner and his attorney, this would violate the right to privacy granted by the constitution. 

If you are going to be charged with a crime, most likely domestic violence related, one of two things will occurr - 1. The cops will try and contact you to get you to make statements to them (don't talk to them, everything you say will be twisted and used against you) 2. The cops will issue an arrest warrant for you. Depending on the jurisdiction you may be able to arrange for a walk through booking process. It does not matter if the officer has or has not finished the police report or if your girlfriend told the cops that she did not want to file a report. If cops were called and they believe a domestic violence occurred, then a report will be generated. During this process, the cops will prepare an arrest warrant, which goes to a judge to sign, once it's signed then it's active in the system within a few days. You can check with the court to see if a warrant has been issued. Then hire a criminal defense attorney to defend you and help you at the bond hearing.
