Re: failure to appear

If there was a legal excuse for your failure to appear, I would urge that excuse. It is also important to know if there is an outstanding bench warrant for your arrest. The charges you faced when you failed to appear may also be very relevant. You can see, the answer to your question is very fact dependent, and requires a full discussion to determine the best manner to approach the situation. If you would like to speak with me further, please call 770-607-5300.
