Have you recently been arrested, released from jail, or received a summons in the mail? Has a police officer come to your house, your work, or left you messages? Do you have questions about what you should do next?
You should talk to a defense attorney. Unlike your family or friends, a criminal defense attorney can have a confidential conversation with you and can’t be forced to testify about what you told them. A criminal defense attorney can answer your questions and can give you information about what will happen next. Don’t wait and think it will all go away. Talk to an attorney.
Remember these two important things: You have the right to remain silent. That means that you don’t have to answer the police officer’s questions. You also have the right to an attorney. Don’t give up your rights. Talk to an attorney.
