Yes—you have a constitutional right to remain silent, and we recommend that you exercise that right. Until you hire an attorney, it’s best to avoid saying anything to the police other than basic information about your identity.
Officers will often try to use anything you say to them against you in court. Even something that seems innocent at the time can be misconstrued to harm your case. Invoking both your right to remain silent and your right to an attorney as soon as possible can vastly improve your chances of receiving the best possible outcome in your case.
