Administrative Investigations Knowing what to do following an arrest, or even an investigative contact by law enforcement, is one of the most important ways to protect your rights during the legal process. When first being approached by law enforcement in an investigative setting, or a detention or arrest, an individual should be polite but firm and request to speak with an attorney and otherwise remain silent. You should not answer any questions if you believe you are the target of an investigation by law enforcement until you speak with an attorney. Additional important actions include:
After the initial arrest, a Reno defense attorney could work with the defendant to explain the arraignment process, post bail, outline the pretrial process, navigate the trial, and handle sentencing.
Being arrested or charged with a criminal offense can leave you unsure of where to turn or what steps to take next. In these situations, you need a Reno criminal defense lawyer with the knowledge, training, and experience to protect your legal rights.
