When you receive a notice for a Clerk Magistrate’s Hearing in Concord District Court, it means the police are seeking criminal charges against you — but the case has not yet been filed in court. This hearing is one of the most important opportunities you will have to stop criminal charges before they even begin.

A clerk magistrate hearing is your chance to prevent a criminal complaint from being issued. If you succeed, the case is closed, and you avoid the stress, embarrassment, and record of a criminal court case.

At the hearing, a clerk magistrate decides whether there is enough evidence to issue a criminal complaint. Having an experienced lawyer by your side can make the difference between:

• No complaint issued – you walk away without a criminal record.
• Complaint issued – you face formal criminal charges and the full court process.

Attorney DelSignore has successfully represented people at clerk magistrate hearings for charges such as:

• Shoplifting
• Larceny
• Assault and battery
• Leaving the scene of an accident
• OUI-related offenses
• Motor vehicle crimes
