What To Do If You Are Under Investigation

If you have reason to believe that you are under investigation by the police or FBI, it is in your best interest to contact an attorney immediately.

Don’t wait until charges are filed against you. Hiring an experienced criminal defense attorney now while the investigation is underway could prevent charges from ever being filed against you.

During a criminal investigation, officers are gathering evidence and interviewing potential witnesses to support the crime they suspect someone has committed. What should you do if an investigator is questioning you in regards to someone else? Even if you do not believe that you are the target of the investigation, having a lawyer by your side can protect your rights and ensure you do not unknowingly implicate yourself.

Protecting Your Rights And Your Future

You have the right not to answer any questions without an attorney present. Investigators are looking to use anything you say as evidence to support the charges. A lawyer can sit with you during the questioning and advise you how to proceed.

If you do face charges, you want to set yourself up for the best defense possible. Starting now offers you the best protection.
