Criminal law doesn’t operate within the confines of 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. While some judges may be able to hold court during standard business hours, criminal defense lawyers need to be ready to help whenever duty calls. Below, we explain what you should do if you find yourself in need of legal help at night or at any point outside of business hours.
Will A Lawyer Answer My Call At Night?
The best lawyers need to be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, because let’s be honest, the majority of crime takes place outside of standard business hours. The majority of crimes that lead a person to be arrested and put in jail occur in the evening hours, and if you’re going to get a head start on your defense or get out of jail as soon as possible, you need to contact a lawyer right away. That means that lawyers need to be ready to answer the call whenever it comes in.
At Appelman Law Firm, we pride ourselves on being available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Even outside of standard business hours, we have a phone system that will route calls to an on-call lawyer or legal aid. There’s a chance that they’ll be assisting someone else at the moment you call, but most of the times you’ll get through on the first call, and if not we’ll do everything we can to either put you on a short hold or call you back as quickly as possible.
We know that time is of the essence when you’re facing an arrest, and you need to know that someone will pick up the phone when you call. That’s why if you need legal help at any time of night in the greater Twin Cities area, you should give the team at Appelman Law Firm a call at (952) 224-2277.
It doesn’t matter if it’s two in the morning or in the middle of a holiday weekend. We know that a lot is on the line, and you need to secure your release as soon as possible. We have great relationships with many of the on-call judges across the nearby counties and can work to get you released before Monday morning. Don’t sit in jail for days when you can call a lawyer in the middle of the night who will start going to work for you right away. To see that in action, or to talk to a lawyer about your criminal defense issue, reach out to Avery and the team at Appelman Law Firm today at (952) 224-2277.
