What Is An Arraignment?

An arraignment is your time in a courtroom.  It takes place after formal charges are filed against you, and it is your first opportunity to enter a plea in your case. 99.9% of cases start with us entering a plea of NOT guilty for you. It is only until we have completed our due diligence and investigated all avenues and defenses in your case, that we entertain changing your previously entered plea unless we go to trial.
