What to Do When You Are Charged with a Crime
If you have been charged with a crime, the first thing you should do is exercise your right to remain silent. Do not say anything to the police until you have spoken to a lawyer. Anything you say can and will be used against you in court.
You have the option to work with a public defender, but these lawyers are often overworked and may not have the time to give your case the attention it deserves.
A better option is to hire a private Laguna Hills criminal defense lawyer who will be able to devote the time and resources necessary to build a strong defense.
