We concentrate on defending the rights of people accused of every type of crime from minor infractions to the most serious felonies.

Do call DLP or have someone call for you
as soon as you have a problem that may involve the police.
Don't provide the police with any information other than your name
and address if you are arrested unless your lawyer is present
and approves what you say.
Don't say anything if your lawyer instructs you to remain silent.
Let your lawyer do the talking for you, no matter how hard it may be
to resist the urge to speak.
Don't sign anything, no matter what it is, without a lawyer
being present.
Don't agree to participate in a police identification line-up or any
other procedure without your attorney being present.
Don't lie to your lawyer or to the police if you chose to talk to them.
These tips are suggestions as how to act if arrested. These tips, however, are
not intended to be direct legal advice and are not intended to substitute for consultation with one of our lawyers.
