The best time to contact a criminal defense attorneyis immediately after an arrest or upon being asked to come in for questioning by a police officer or a detective. If you are taken into custody for questioning, don’t answer any questions. You should not subject yourself to scrutiny or a situation where you are being asked questions about a crime without having first spoken to an attorney. C0ntact Orlando Florida criminal defense attorney Roddy Lanigan. Don’t Answer Any Questions Without An Attorney What you may consider as being honest by speaking with police or a detective, may not be the best choice. An experienced attorney will be able to tell you if you should be answering questions by the police. You don’t know what the officers or detectives motives are. You don’t know the proper way to answer a question without inadvertently incriminating yourself. You don’t know if you should respond with yes or no answers or give complex responses. You may be nervous and unsure of how to answer. You may not understand the questions that will be asked of you. All of these are reasons you should ask the police officers or the detectives asking you questions for a moment to call an attorney. Consult with Roddy Lanigan, a criminal defense attorney who has practiced criminal defense since 2007 at the Winter Park, Florida, firm of Lanigan and Lanigan. If you have been arrested, don’t talk to anyone, don’t ask questions except to ask for your one phone call to a criminal defense attorney. Calling an attorney does not indicate guilt. It demonstrates that you want to...
