An arrest is frightening, and what you do in the first day or two can shape everything that follows. Here's a simple road map:
▪️ Stay calm and be polite, but remember you can decline to answer questions
▪️ Clearly say you want a lawyer, then stop talking about the case
▪️ Write down everything you remember while it's fresh
▪️ Don't discuss the case with anyone but your attorney, including on jail phones
▪️ Call a criminal defense attorney as soon as you can
