You need to remain silent. Most police and government officials are skilled interrogators, and could keep you under questioning for hours, just hoping you’ll contradict yourself. Rather than take that chance, simply tell them that you’re invoking your rights to an attorney and to remain silent.
If you are indicted for a crime after an investigation, you will proceed to a bond hearing. At this hearing, the judge will decide if you will be released on bond pending trial, or if you will be remanded to custody. You need a criminal defense attorney to help fight for your release.
That depends on the situation. If your alleged crime is not serious, prosecutors could be willing to negotiate a plea, especially if this is your first offense. Otherwise, whether or not a case proceeds to trial is really a strategic decision. Sometimes, it’s advisable to take a deal if it’s nearly certain you will be convicted.
If you are convicted at trial, then we will work with you quickly to decide whether or not filing an appeal would be advisable. If so, we’ll get to work immediately on the proper filings and the brief that’s necessary.
