Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I have been arrested in Cumberland County?


If you have been arrested, remain calm and prioritize protecting your rights and best interests. A law enforcement officer must read you your Miranda rights, which include the following:


  • You have the right to remain silent.
  • Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
  • You have the right to an attorney.
  • If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you.

First and foremost, exercise your right to remain silent. While you must provide basic identification information to the police, you do not have to answer any other questions. You should avoid discussing the details of your case with anyone, including anyone in your holding cell or police officers. The police may try to question you but do not talk to them unless requesting an attorney. You have the right to an attorney, and you should exercise it. 


We recommend contacting an experienced Cumberland County criminal defense attorney as soon as possible. Remember, an arrest is not the same as a conviction, so having skilled legal representation can play a critical role in the outcome of your case.

What should I do if I have an active arrest warrant in Cumberland County?


If you discover an outstanding arrest warrant in your name, contact our experienced criminal defense attorney immediately. We can discuss your situation and the next steps for resolving the warrant and building your defense. For example, we may recommend turning yourself in or may be able to arrange a surrender date, often mitigating the circumstances surrounding your arrest, such as public embarrassment. 

Do I need a criminal lawyer in Cumberland County even if I am innocent?


Yes, we recommend having a skilled criminal defense lawyer on your side if you are under investigation or facing accusations or criminal charges. Unfortunately, innocence does not guarantee that you will be acquitted of charges. 


You may believe that the truth will naturally come to light. However, the unfortunate reality is that many innocent people get convicted of crimes they did not commit. 


Legal representation maximizes the chances of the justice system working in your favor, even if you are confident in your innocence. For example, an experienced lawyer can ensure that law enforcement and prosecutors do not take advantage of you, that you do not accidentally incriminate yourself, and fight for your best interests. Your attorney will investigate your case, gather evidence, and identify strengths and weaknesses in your case to develop the best possible defense strategies.

Testimonials

I retained Mr. Redden for a D.U.I. a few years ago. Since I travel extensively for my business, I was extremely concerned about losing my license and not being able to work. Mr. Redden made clear from the beginning that he could not guarantee I would not lose my license, but that he would do his best to save it. He delivered on that promise. Mr. Redden reviewed the evidence in my case and found a problem with the evidence. As a result, the D.U.l. was dismissed. I would recommend him to anyone.

Steve T.

My daughter was killed in a car accident, after being served excessive alcohol by a bar, leaving her two small children without a mother. Some people tried to say it was my daughter's fault, but Mr. Redden worked hard and was able to prove that the bar was negligent for serving her too much alcohol. He recovered money to help her children. 

Maria V.

I was facing my second D.U.I. and a two year loss of my license. Since I also have a Commercial License that I use for work, if I was convicted of the D.U.I., I would have lost a lot of business and possibly have been destroyed financially. I had used a high-priced law firm for my first D.U.I. and was not happy with the results.

I had met Mr. Redden socially and liked his personality, knowledge of the law and his passion to win for his clients. I hired Mr. Redden - at a much lower fee than my previous lawyer - and he fought hard and got the D.U.I. charge dismissed.

I would recommend him to anyone with a legal problem, and I've referred family and friends to him.

 I was asked by a close family member to loan them a significant amount of money. Due to our close family relationship, I didn't get the loan in writing, and later the other person refused to repay me. It caused an extreme financial hardship for me and my family. People told me without a written contract, I would never get paid. I hired Mr. Redden to try and get my money back. He not only got my money paid back to me, he made the other person pay his attorneys fees. He did a great job.
