Do I have to answer police questioning?
If you are a suspect or think you could become a suspect, you are within your rights to request an attorney before speaking with any law enforcement officer. By law, everything you say to your attorney is protected by the client-attorney privilege. Anything you say to law enforcement officers can be held against you.
3. If arrested, what steps can I take on my behalf?
a. Do not discuss your situation with anyone except your attorney.
b. Unless your attorney says otherwise, do not discuss your case with law enforcement.
c. Request to have your attorney present if you are to be put in a lineup or subjected to testing.
d. Remain calm and courteous. Allow your attorney to speak for you to ensure that your rights are protected and you are given all the benefits afforded to you under the law.
- Cholakis, Greg:
If you or someone close to you are facing criminal charges, you probably know that they are not something to be taken lightly. Your choice of attorney, and the approach taken in defending against the charges, can have a profound impact on your life.
There are many attorneys who handle criminal cases as a small part of their law practice, and there are times when a general practice attorney can be fine for handling a minor matter. But if you find yourself in a situation where the outcome of your case can greatly impact your life, you need an attorney with the dedication, experience and ingenuity necessary to mount the strongest defense possible.
- Bartle, McGrane, Duffy & Jones:
If you have been charged with a crime, it is important to speak with an
experienced criminal defense trial lawyer as soon as possible.
