I have a lot of people who refer me to out-of-country positions. Often, they're doing it for a family member who is currently in custody in the country or Los Angeles, or perhaps they're out of custody but the family member is trying to hire an attorney.
I do that a lot. In fact, I've had a lot of people hire me from positions in and out of the country. Often, we can communicate through WhatsApp and various other forms of communication, such as email.
Various Forms Of Contacting My Office
It really just depends on where you are and your circumstances. You can contact me via email at [email protected]. You can also call my office directly. Once you express your interest in hiring me, I'll provide you with my cell phone number and we can communicate through WhatsApp or any other form of communication that is convenient for you.
For instance, I recently handled a case in Van Nuys where my client was charged with attempted murder. We were able to secure her release from custody, maintaining constant communication with her family throughout. Her father even flew in from Russia to support her. This success story is just one example of the positive outcomes we strive for in every case.
Each case is unique, and I handle a variety of out-of-state and out-of-country matters where family members are seeking my assistance. We understand that the method of payment for legal representation is a personal choice, and we accommodate wire transfers or credit card payments, depending on your preference.
So, if you or a family member is out of the country and needs to hire a criminal defense attorney from an international location, call my office. You can email me at the address listed. Once you retain me, you'll obviously be able to communicate with me through WhatsApp or any other form of communication that is necessary.
Dealing with Warrants While Out of the Country
If you've got a warrant and you're out of the country a lot of times what we can do once I'm retained on a case, I can go into court, have the warrant taken out for some time to allow you to travel back into the United States and appear in the Los Angeles court.

Sometimes judges will do that, especially when they see that you've retained an attorney and they realize that it's almost impossible to travel into the United States from an international position without getting arrested because of the warrant, because there's such high security at the airports.
If you've a warrant in Los Angeles and need assistance while out of the country, please contact my office. We can talk about it. It just depends on what type of case you have.
Often, I can appear in court for a minute order, which outlines everything that has transpired in the case since it was placed on warrant status, and sometimes even before that. I'm able to check that at.
I'm able to contact the judge who is in charge of the case and the prosecutor who will be handling it, to sort of set things up for you before you arrive in the country. Then we can really get into a good discussion about exactly how we can help you.
One big question I often get in cases where someone is out of the country is, exactly how can I handle the warrant without coming into the country myself? If it's a felony warrant in Los Angeles County, they typically will not allow you to handle the warrant unless you actually physically come into the county.
So, often, I will go to court on your behalf once I'm retained on the case. I will speak with the judge and explain that you have retained me to handle the case. You want to deal with the warrant, but you can't just fly in because you'll be arrested at the airport.
Removing a Warrant From the System While You Travel
Then, there will be extradition proceedings, which involve a formal request from the United States to the country where you are located. This process can take significantly longer and be considerably more challenging. All the judge has to do is take the warrant out of the system for a week or two to allow you to travel into the country.
A lot of this, depending on the jurisdiction in Los Angeles, there are 38 courts. Still, most of the courts are pretty reasonable, depending on the judge we are dealing with, and also depending on what type of argument we can mount on your behalf. That's likely to determine whether we can obtain the warrant's lifting, allowing you to enter the country.
Then, obviously, the next thing we're going to discuss is what type of case you have. Is it a real serious case? Is it a case that's not as serious, or is it a mid-level case?
Keeping You Out of Custody
Once I hear the type of case, what happened, what your criminal record looks like, how long it's been since the warrant was issued, and what we're going to do moving forward, I can usually give you a pretty good idea of what the likelihood is of you going into custody. We might be able to keep you out of custody because the next issue is that once you come in, the warrant will be taken out of the system.
Now, will the judge set bail for you, or will the judge release you on your own recognizance? And then, of course, the next question is going to be, what's going to happen with the case? Do you have a defense to it, or will it be something that we'll have to enter a plea bargain for?
Once you provide me with all the necessary information, I will conduct a comprehensive review of your case. This includes reviewing your record, examining the minute order, and discussing the best strategy for warrant recall. Our thorough approach ensures that we are fully prepared to handle your case effectively.
How we're going to deal with any bail issues, and finally, how we're going to ultimately resolve the case on your behalf so that you can move forward in your life and go back to your home country if that's what you choose to do.
