It’s normal to have questions and feel worried if you’ve received a court summons. Even if you’ve been in court before, you still need to be careful when appearing before the judge. If you haven’t retained legal counsel, it’s important to do so now.

Magisterial District Court Information
These courts hear many different cases. Criminal matters that occur in the county may include reckless driving, DWI, and DUI; assault and battery or domestic violence cases; drug possession; or firearms charges. You may also have bail set while your trial is pending or Judge Hunter will hear preliminary motions before your jury trial.
Other cases include landlord-tenant disputes, even evictions. Or, you may have a small claims case, which is where the damages are under $12,000. Having an attorney in these cases can keep you from having a judgment that may break you financially, affect your credit, and even make it harder for you to rent a home or apartment!
Powerful Legal Representation in Delaware County
Even if you think your changes are minor, and that you can defend yourself, it’s always best to have a lawyer advocate on your side. The field of criminal law is complex and constantly changing, and our attorneys have our clients’ best interests in mind when providing representation, especially at the district court level and throughout the pre-trial process.
If you’re a party in a small claims lawsuit, having a lawyer to help you gather the information you need to prove your case is important. Some of the requirements of civil proceedings can be strict, and if you don’t have your ducks in a row, you could lose your case, even if you’re in the right!
