FAQ - Frequently asked questions about Criminal Law

1) In which situations should I look for a criminal lawyer?

Whenever you or a family member is investigated, charged or arrested for crimes against property, drug trafficking, false documents, crimes against honor or any other crime. The lawyer acts from the police phase to the judicial process, guaranteeing your rights.

2. What is the difference between crimes against property and crimes against honor?

Crimes against property involve material goods, such as theft, robbery, embezzlement and receiving stolen goods. Crimes against honor affect a person's reputation or dignity, such as slander, defamation and libel.

3. What is an answer to the charge in criminal proceedings?

It is the defendant's first formal defense in the case. In this phase, the lawyer presents arguments, evidence and requests to try to extinguish the criminal action or prepare the ground for the defense during the course of the trial.

4. How does the request for provisional release work?

When a person is arrested in flagrante or preventively, the lawyer can ask the judge for provisional release, showing that there is no risk to public order, the process or the application of criminal law.

5. What does relaxation of detention mean?

It is the request made to the judge to release the prisoner when the arrest was carried out illegally or with abuse of authority, guaranteeing the immediate release of the citizen.

6. How important is follow-up at the police station?

The assistance of a lawyer at the police station is essential to ensure that the client is not coerced, has their rights respected and does not self-incriminate during statements or interrogations.

7. What is a police investigation and how does the defense work at this stage?

The police inquiry is the investigation carried out by the police to determine whether a crime has been committed and who was responsible. The lawyer acts to ensure that illegal evidence is not produced and accompanies statements and investigations.

8. How does the defense work in drug trafficking cases?

The defense seeks to analyze the legality of the arrest, how the substance was seized, the quantity and the circumstances of the case, and may ask for the crime to be downgraded to self-use or even acquittal due to lack of evidence.

9. What is a pre-trial hearing?

This is the phase of the trial in which witnesses, the victim and the accused are heard. The lawyer is active, asking questions, contesting evidence and supporting his client's defense.

10. What should I do if a family member is arrested in the act?

The ideal thing to do is to immediately contact a criminal lawyer to follow up the case at the police station, check the legality of the arrest and file a request for provisional release or relaxation, depending on the situation.
