Lifting a Lexington County bench warrant

Lifting a Lexington County bench warrant

If your loved one has been arrested on a bench warrant for missing a criminal court date we can help.

Bench warrants are normally automatically issued when a defendant misses an appearance or other court date. Once a bench warrant is issued the defendant will be arrested and held in jail until either the conclusion of the case or until a judge specifically vacates the warrant. This process could leave your loved one in jail for months. There is no rule in South Carolina that the defendant automatically receives a hearing or a new court date.

We can help to try to resolve this situation and can start work right away. Depending on the circumstances, it may be possible to obtain a defendant’s release weeks or months faster than just waiting on the system. The first step is to contact our office for a free case evaluation with a criminal defense attorney.  

We understand that many times people miss court appearances due to transportation problems, calendar errors, or they never actually received mailed notice of the court date. Call us at 1-888-301-6004 to schedule an appointment to discuss your situation. We can help involving cases in Lexington, Columbia, or elsewhere in South Carolina.
