An arrest, an unexpected call from investigators, or an approaching court date can leave you looking for legal help outside normal business hours.
LV Criminal Defense accepts telephone inquiries 24/7, including nights and weekends. You can call about your own situation or ask about arranging representation for a family member.
Call (702) 623-6362 to request a free initial consultation. You do not need a complete case file before contacting the office.
Start with the immediate concern. Is someone in custody? Have police requested an interview? Is there a hearing or document deadline approaching?
Provide the name of the individual; provide a callback number that is reliable; provide the location of the jail/court (if you know it). At the start of the call, state any deadlines. Keep all relevant paperwork close by; however, do not wait to make the call just because you don’t have all the paperwork.
Nick Wooldridge has a long track record of representing clients accused of serious federal and state crimes in Nevada.
For an online inquiry, keep the description brief. Save detailed accounts and sensitive evidence for an appropriate discussion with counsel.
You can contact the office at any hour. However, telephone availability does not guarantee an immediate consultation with a particular attorney, attendance at a jail, or representation at an upcoming hearing.
The office can explain availability and the next steps for considering your matter. The initial consultation is free; any representation and legal fees are discussed separately.
Do not assume the firm is handling a case or deadline until representation has been agreed.
Calling on behalf of a partner, adult child, or friend can be difficult when you have only part of the story. Explain what you know and distinguish it from information you have not confirmed. There is no need to reconstruct the incident or guess at the charges before asking about representation.
When I initially met with Mr. Wooldridge, he took the opportunity to sit and go over my problem with me. He described details in my case which he found disturbing and explained why he I should have him on my side.
You may continue to contact the office regarding a Nevada issue even if you have left Las Vegas. Have all of your court notices, citations, and/or release documents ready.
Let the office know where you are located and what time zone you are in so they will understand your situation when you speak with them again.
At the end of your call, find out what will happen next: do they need more information; how should you send documents; who will be contacting you? Write down these instructions. Knowing what the next step is is much more helpful than attempting to answer every question on your first call while under stress.
