NYC Criminal Attorneys - 24/7 Availability
The first few hours following an arrest will likely be the most frightening and vital times of your life. You need help – and you need help immediately. So what do you do if your attorney doesn't operate past normal business hours? Criminal arrests do not always happen at a convenient hour. What happens if you are arrested during the middle of the night or at the break of dawn? You can't always wait for normal office hours to speak to a lawyer.
You need help – and you need it now.
It is for this reason that we at H. Benjamin Perez & Associates, P.C. are proud to make ourselves available around the clock. No matter the day or the time, if you need help, you can find it at our firm. We are proud to offer a 24 hour arrest and arraignment hotline – which you can call at any hour of the night to speak to a lawyer directly. Many people find themselves surprised to call the number and speak to one of our founding attorneys.
Immediate Help for Your Arraignment
Per New York State law, if you have been arrested, you will need to be brought before a judge for your arraignment within 24 hours of your arrest. What exactly is an arraignment? This is the court process which will allow for you to be read all charges that are being pressed against you. This is where the judge will officially decide whether you will be released on bail or whether you will be released on your own recognize.
It is a vital step in the process – and it happens within 24 hours of the arrest.
You therefore do not have time to wait hours to get in touch with a lawyer. The arraignment will not determine your innocence or guilt, but it will lay the foundation for the rest of your arrest and the immediate time following. By contacting us immediately after the arrest, we will be able to jump into action.
We will be able to meet with you to discuss your case, your legal options and help develop a strategy for the arraignment. We will thus be well-prepared and provide you with solid guidance to help you with the complicated details, as well as any arrangements being determined during the arraignment.

“The level of professionalism; dedication; compassion and customer service exhibited by Mr. Perez is not common in the industry.”
As an attorney at law in the State of New Jersey I generally receive calls from friends and family members seeking assistance and/or advice. Generally I can offer some level of assistance and guidance. That said, I am not licensed in New York nor do I practice criminal law. As such, when I received a call from a close friend in the early morning hours of a recent Saturday explaining that he had been arrested I immediately called them. Much to my surprise, my call was personally answered by Mr. Perez despite the fact that it was after midnight. Mr. Perez explained the process to me in a calm and professional manner and appeared just hours later at central booking to enter an appearance and represent my friend. Throughout the entire process Mr. Perez kept me and my friend’s family members up to date regarding the situation via phone call and text message exhibiting confidence in a candid and professional manner. Ultimately, Mr. Perez was able to achieve a favorable resolution of the issue as the matter was ultimately dismissed. As an attorney I can tell you, the level of professionalism; dedication; compassion and customer service exhibited by Mr. Perez is not common in the industry. If the need arises do not hesitate to contact them, you will be in good hands.- Happy Client -

“An exceptional, outstanding attorney. I highly recommend ...”
I highly recommend Benjamin Perez as a criminal attorney. He is a true expert in criminal law. He responds quickly and personally to emails and phone calls. He gave me a free consult that exceeded all expectations. He is smart, compassionate, analytical, listens, and was capable of understanding the complexities of my case right away. He then outlined what needed to be done. He was fully involved and focused on my case and was not "going through the motions". I highly recommend him. I have dealt with other lawyers and he is in a different league. The best criminal lawyer.- Criminal Defense Client -
“Excellent customer service and we got our case dismissed!”
Mr. Perez represented my husband with a case and we were very pleased with his level of professionalism and customer service. We live in Georgia now and had to travel to take care of business. We went through so many attorneys in NY before finding Perez. Perez kept me informed every step of the way and was always available to speak with me and answer my questions, even on the WEEKEND he answered my emails!! Excellent customer service and we got our case dismissed! I would recommend him to many others.- Katrina -
“Superb lawyer”
My daughter was arrested on drug charges last year. She is 20 years old, it was her first arrest and her father and I were very scared for her and what this would mean to her future. We contacted H. Benjamin Perez and he was superb! First of all, he calmed us down. He took the time to explain everything to us in full detail and was very accommodating when I would call with questions. Mr. Perez represented my daughter and was able to get her charges completely dismissed. Mr. Perez did a great job for us. He came highly recommended by one of my husband's friends (a former client of Mr. Perez) and we are very glad we called him. He is very knowledgeable, responsive and best of all very affordable. You will be glad you hired him.- Gail -

His professionalism, rates and genuine warmth made my family feel with credence and conviction that Mr. Perez is the guy to go with as an attorney. I strongly recommend and commend his service to anyone that is seeking for a respectable and outstanding attorney!- Duane -
