Know Your Rights
Nothing is more frightening than being arrested. You do have important rights. Often a situation may become worse because you do not exercise your rights.
DO NOT make any statement to any law enforcement officer. You have the right to remain silent.
DO NOT talk about your case to any other person except your attorney. Anyone else – your friend, your relative, your co-worker - may be made to tell the police and the court what you have said about this case.
DO NOT waive your right to your attorney. ASK to speak to your attorney.
DO NOT pled guilty or no contest (no lo contendre) until you have consulted with your attorney.
Always plea NOT GUILTY.
You may have other important rights. The law enforcement officer may not have probable cause to stop you. Once you were stopped, there may have been an improper search or an improper series of questioning against you. There may not be sufficient evidence to go forth with the case against you.
You have other important legal rights. If you were arrested, please contact us so we may discuss your rights and your possible defenses to the charges against you. Please contact us for more information.
A felony charge is the most serious charge. For felonies, you can be sentenced to the Department of Corrections for anywhere from one year to life depending on the charges. In certain cases, you may also be subject to the death penalty.
If you are convicted of a felony, you will lose your right to vote and other important civil rights. If you are charged with a felony, do not go it alone. Please contact us for more information.
Misdemeanors are less serious offenses like some traffic violations, petty theft, or possession of a small amount of marijuana. However, even misdemeanor cases may result in fines, probation or time in the County jail. Make sure that your rights are protected. Please contact us for more information.
Many people’s only contact with law enforcement is being charged with driving under the influence. There are many defenses and strategies to fight for your rights if you are charged with a DUI.
The breathalyzer machine may not have been properly certified or working. The Law enforcement officers may not have followed the proper procedures for making a determination as to whether you were under the influence. Make sure your rights are protected. Please contact us for more information.
When relationships turn violent, or when a domestic violence injunction is violated, criminal charges may result. Often, no bond is set immediately. Domestic violence charges may affect your ability to gain employment or even accompany your child on a school field trip. Please contact us for more information.
