Criminal Charges in Dallas – FAQ

Local answers from a Texas defense team.

  • What happens after a criminal arrest in Dallas, TX?

    If you’re arrested in Dallas, you’ll typically be booked at the county jail and appear before a magistrate within 48 hours. Bail may be set at that time. It’s critical to contact a criminal defense lawyer as early as possible to protect your rights and begin preparing your defense.

  • Can I handle a Dallas charge if I live in another city?

    Yes—many clients are charged in Dallas while traveling or visiting. We can represent you remotely in most situations and appear in court on your behalf when possible. If an in-person appearance is required, we’ll guide you through the scheduling and logistics.

  • Is it possible to get charges dismissed in Dallas County?

    Yes, but it depends on the details of your case, your criminal history, and the available evidence. We evaluate every case for potential dismissal or charge reduction through negotiation or legal challenges. Each district attorney’s office—including Dallas—has its own policies and diversion options.

  • Do Dallas courts offer pretrial diversion for first-time offenders?

    Dallas County does offer pretrial diversion programs for some first-time offenses. These can help you avoid a conviction if you complete certain requirements. Our attorneys can assess whether you’re eligible and advocate for your participation in a diversion program.

  • How long will my Dallas criminal case take?

    Timelines vary based on the charge, court calendar, and whether the case goes to trial. Some cases resolve in weeks; others take months. We’ll provide realistic expectations and keep you updated throughout the process.
