What To Do If You’ve Been Charged With A Crime
If you find yourself suddenly charged with a crime, there are things you can do to control the negative circumstances you find yourself facing such as:
- Remain silent. Do not talk to the police until you have talked to an attorney. Miranda Rights allow you to remain silent. Law enforcement will be looking for evidence to use against you, including statements you make. Don’t hurt your chances by speaking to them when you legally don’t have to.
- Retain legal counsel. Contact an attorney right away or have your loved ones contact an attorney for you. The sooner you do this, the better chance your attorney has of controlling how to proceed with your defense.
