Warrant lawyer in Los Angeles.

A warrant does not go away by itself. It can surface at a traffic stop, an airport or a job background check. Handling it on your terms, with a lawyer, is almost always better than being arrested on it.

Types of warrants

  • Bench warrants, usually for missing a court date or not completing a court-ordered requirement.
  • Arrest warrants, issued when charges are filed or police seek a warrant from a judge.

How we handle it

For many misdemeanor warrants, your lawyer can appear in court on your behalf and ask the judge to recall the warrant. For felony warrants we arrange the safest way to address it, and argue for release on your own recognizance or reasonable bail.

Why move quickly

The longer a warrant is outstanding, the harder it is to explain to the judge. Taking action shows good faith and usually leads to a better result.

Insurance dispute
Very grateful to Mr. Manavi for representing me against a insurance company that was trying to deny me equitable payment in the repair of my childhood home after a negligent plumber. Mr. Manavi advocated fiercely, expertly, and strategically to secure a favorable outcome.
Eraka B.
Saman had great attention to detail when it came to my case. … Not only was he accurate in the timeline I provided for my case but he was very clear in communicating his strategy and made me feel very comfortable with my case.
Andy
He was always available when I needed him and kept me informed throughout the entire process. He explained things clearly, but was also very understanding and easy to talk to, which made a stressful situation feel a lot more manageable.
