WARNING:
Do Not Talk With Law Enforcement
Until You Call Us...
Police questioning of a suspect is typically aggressive and tricky. Many people are foolish enough to think that talking to the police will help them, and how the cops will go easier on them. Others just want to be cooperative.
Don't do it. You should never talk to the police on your own, and should repeatedly tell officers and investigators that you do not want to speak with any of them until your lawyer is present.
Even still, the police are experts are getting people to talk. Here are two tricks they often use to get you to give up your constitutional right to remain silent:
- The officer says, "We can do this the easy way, or we can do it the hard way — it's up to you." Here, the police officer suggests that if you admit of your wrongdoing, he or she will go easier on you. This won't work because they have no authorization to make "deals" — only the police prosecutor or District Attorney's office does. You'll end-up taking the bait, admitting to a crime, and having everything you say be used against you.
- "Why won't you talk to us — what do you have to hide?" In a challenging fashion, the officer asks this loaded question hoping to get you to talk. Remember, you have the right to remain silent and don't have to justify your decision not to speak with a police officer.
The bottom line is that police officers, particularly detectives, are judged and evaluated on their ability to catch suspects, getting them to talk, and then using those statements against them to secure convictions and close cases. You shouldn't try to outsmart them — get a lawyer and keep quiet.
We Approach Every Case
As If We Are Heading For Trial
In every case, our first hope is to have the evidence tossed out of court, and the matter dismissed. That isn't always the case however, and we prepare every matter as if it is going to trial, even those cases that we believe (confidentially) will not go that far along in the criminal court process. This is the best practice, and even when the client tells us that he or she has no intention of going to trial and risking a guilty verdict, we still prepare as if we are going all the way. Any of our attorneys will tell you that when cases are litigated vigorously before trial, plea bargain offers get better and better.
As we prepare for trial, our attorneys create a theme for each case — one that keeps the judge's and the jury's interest. The best are the ones that capture the imagination of the fact finder. For a FREE no-obligation consultation, call (800) 461-6900 or
