 The police are good guys most of the time and they're out to help us and protect our community. However, when they're investigating you as the defendant in a crime, it is best not to make a statement. Remember, the police are collecting evidence. And if that evidence is going to be used against you, it is always best to make no statements without a law you're present. Contact us before talking to the police so we can assist you in representing you along in the investigation. You're right. Since 1971.
