Waiting for action...
Discovering that there is an active warrant in your name can be overwhelming and frightening. Warrants can be issued for missed court appearances, unpaid fines, probation violations, or new criminal allegations. No matter the reason, a warrant can lead to sudden arrest at home, work, or during a routine traffic stop. At Novo Law, we recognize the urgency of these situations and act quickly to protect your rights and resolve the matter.
Our attorneys provide clear guidance and aggressive representation when handling warrant cases. Whether you’re facing a bench warrant, arrest warrant, or extradition issue, we help you navigate the legal process and work toward the best possible resolution.

Contact an attorney immediately. A lawyer can confirm the warrant and advise on safe next steps.
Yes. With an active warrant, law enforcement can detain you anywhere—at home, work, or during travel.
Not always. An attorney can often negotiate conditions that allow for release on bond.
In some cases, yes. Your lawyer may be able to resolve certain warrants without you being present, depending on the circumstances.
Most do not. Warrants generally remain active until addressed by the court.
Timelines vary, but hearings often move faster than regular criminal trials—sometimes within weeks of the violation notice.
