Oklahoma Criminal Defense FAQ

What you need to know after an arrest.

  • What happens after I’m arrested in Oklahoma?

    You’ll be booked and held until a bond hearing or arraignment, which typically happens within 48 hours. Depending on the county, your lawyer may be able to appear on your behalf in early hearings. We guide you through the process from the start and help ensure your rights are preserved throughout the case.

  • Can I beat a DUI charge in Oklahoma?

    Possibly. DUI defenses may include challenging the stop, questioning the breathalyzer results, or disputing the officer’s observations. Oklahoma also has strict rules for license suspension and interlock devices. We help you handle both the criminal and administrative parts of a DUI charge.

  • Are drug charges in Oklahoma still serious post-legalization?

    Yes. While marijuana laws have changed, many drug charges—including for edibles, concentrates, and large quantities—are still aggressively prosecuted. Other controlled substances remain heavily penalized. We examine search procedures, lab results, and every angle to challenge the state’s case.

  • Do Oklahoma counties offer diversion or deferral programs?

    Yes—especially for first-time offenders or low-level charges. The availability depends on the district attorney and type of offense. We help determine eligibility and guide you through the process to avoid a conviction when possible.

  • Can you represent clients from outside Oklahoma?

    Absolutely. Many people are arrested in Oklahoma while traveling, visiting family, or attending events. We represent out-of-state clients, minimize their travel, and handle most proceedings locally. You don’t have to be a resident to get skilled defense.
