Talk to a Lawyer Before You Talk to Law Enforcement
When the police ask you to come in for questioning, it is natural to want to explain yourself. You want to cooperate and clear things up, but anything you say can be misunderstood or used against you.
Police are trained to collect evidence, not to protect you from self incrimination. Even one unclear statement can change the entire direction of your case.
You have the right to stay silent, and using that right is a smart choice.
When you call us early, we step in immediately. We handle communication, prevent harmful mistakes, and protect your rights from the start. Before you answer any questions, speak with an attorney who understands how the system works on the inside.

Frequently Asked Questions from Clients Charged with Crimes
Can I tell my lawyer everything?
Yes. Attorney client privilege protects your privacy. To defend you effectively, we need the full truth, and you can speak openly without fear that your attorney will disclose anything.
When should I hire an attorney?
Immediately. The earlier we get involved, the more we can protect your rights and shape the direction of your case.
Can I represent myself?
Legally yes, but it puts you at significant risk. The law is complex and prosecutors are highly trained. Self representation often leads to harsher outcomes.
Should I accept a plea deal?
Not without legal guidance. Some plea offers are fair. Others are not. We evaluate the evidence, explore alternatives, and advise you on the smartest path.
