Should I cancel a polygraph test?

Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Kathryn L. Hudson
It would be money well spent to retain an attorney to get between you and the accusers. If the accuser is your employer and having to submit to a polygraph is a requirement in your employment contract you can still refuse but that might be grounds for termination. Polygraph tests are not admissible as evidence of guilt for a reason, they can be very unreliable so you are wise to not consent if you feel uneasy.

What can I do if my daughter was arrested on a DWI charge?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
Call two or three local lawyers to get price quotes. But frankly, because she is so young, she probably qualifies for a court appointed lawyer if she is in school or working a low wage job.' Bring proof of her income, enrollment in school, etc., to her first court appearance. It is not about your finances but hers as she is an adult for criminal law purposes.

Trying to get a record expunged. I had a deferred adjunication back in 2000 and was trying to get it expunged

You won't be able to get that case expunged, since it was only dismissed after successful completion of deferred probation. What you need to be looking in to is whether you can get the offense sealed. The vehicle to accomplish that is called a Petition for Non-Disclosure. You'll want to speak to an attorney before proceeding, in my opinion. First, you need to discuss with the attorney who it is you are trying to prevent from seeing the arrest records, and whether a sealing order will accomplish that goal. Second, you need to find out whether your specific offense is subject to a limitations period or whether eligible, at all.
