A family member of one of Alec Waid’s former clients reached out to him regarding their sister. She discovered—after being stopped for a tag check—that she had a warrant out for her arrest due to a suspended driver’s license charge she was unaware of. The warrant had been issued for failing to appear at a court date she never received notice of.
Alec was contacted about the case around 2 p.m. on a Monday. He immediately reached out to a supervisor at the State Attorney’s Office regarding the issue. By around 10 a.m. Tuesday—just 20 hours later—the prosecutor informed Alec that the warrant was being withdrawn and the paperwork to dismiss the charges had been signed.
While not every case moves this quickly or successfully, this is a great example of the difference a local, well-connected attorney can make in your criminal case. Congratulations to Alec and his client on such a fast resolution!
Alec now brings his talents as an aggressive trial attorney to Battaglia, Ross, Dicus & McQuaid where he is focused on representing individuals and businesses in civil matters as well as defending those facing criminal charges.
