Criminal Defense Attorney in Columbus
Have you been arrested on a criminal charge?
If you or a loved one is arrested, it can be a frightening experience and a time filled with deep emotional concern. Though you may be intimidated by law enforcement officers and the criminal justice process, you have a strong advocate on your side in the person of a Columbus criminal defense lawyer. Your rights can and should be fully protected and you are under no obligation to make statements to police without your attorney present.
Take immediate action by remaining silent and requesting legal counsel in accordance with your rights under the U.S. Constitution. Trying to cooperate may only backfire, regardless of innocence or guilt. The police are allowed to lie to you during formal questioning and may say or do anything in an attempt to get a suspect to admit to committing a crime. Instead of answering their questions and opening the door to self-incrimination or a coerced confession, invoke your right to an attorney and make sure that you do not say anything without your attorney present. This is the best advice we can give to any person who has been arrested or is under investigation by state or federal law enforcement, no matter the scope or nature of the alleged crime. Call our Columbus law offices and arrange a confidential review of your case with a criminal attorney who will treat you with respect and provide an honest assessment of the situation.
