Criminal Defense

When a person is accused of a crime in Arkansas, they are subject to numerous penalties including fines, imprisonment, probation and community service. Defending your criminal case in the strongest possible way is critical to your freedom and your future.

The outcome of any criminal case depends upon the facts surrounding the crime charged, the strength of the evidence, the quality of the law enforcement investigation, successful motion practice before the court, and the goals and strategy of the government and defense.

Trust Your Lawyer– He is the person who will safeguard your rights- NOT the Police. If you have been arrested, or if you are stopped by the police for questioning, remember that your lawyer is the person you should trust.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT YOUR LAWYER BEING PRESENT.

Law enforcement investigators are specifically trained to get people who don’t want to talk to them to open up and talk with them anyway. The U.S. Supreme Court allows police, federal agents and criminal investigators to trick, lie and deceive during the course of their investigations to get the information they want.

If you are being investigated for any crime or other serious charge, do not answer any questions the officers, detectives or federal agents ask. You should politely, but firmly, tell them that you want to retain an attorney before you can speak with them and that you will not answer questions without your lawyer present. Do not answer their questions or initiate conversation with the police. This cannot be stressed enough. You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney – use those rights!
