High Point Criminal Defense Lawyers

Arrested or charged in High Point?

High Point is the only North Carolina city that reaches into four counties: Guilford, Randolph, Davidson, and Forsyth. Most High Point cases are heard at the Guilford County Courthouse in High Point, 505 East Green Drive, but an offense in another county’s part of the city goes to that county’s court. Our Charlotte and Raleigh attorneys both cover the area. Call (704) 842-3411 or (919) 925-4613.

What to know about a High Point charge

Because the city crosses four county lines, two people arrested by the same High Point officer on the same night can end up in different courthouses. The county is set by where the offense happened, not where you live or which police department made the arrest. Check the county on your citation before your first court date.

High Point cases in Guilford County are usually heard at the High Point courthouse on East Green Drive. The clerk there closes from 12:45 to 1:45 p.m., and there is a 24-hour drop box outside the public entrance on the right.

DWI checking stations

North Carolina law (G.S. 20-16.3A) lets officers run DWI checking stations, but only under a written policy and a pattern for which vehicles are stopped that is set in advance. A checkpoint that does not follow those rules can be challenged in court.

Police video

Body camera and dash camera video is not a public record in North Carolina. Under G.S. 132-1.4A, a person shown in a recording may ask the agency to let them view it, and getting a copy released requires a court order. A defense lawyer can ask the court to order release when the video matters to the case.
