What Should You Do if You're Arrested?

Being arrested can be a distressing and confusing experience. At Mulembo Law PLLC, we understand the importance of knowing your rights and taking appropriate steps to protect yourself. Here's what you should do if you find yourself facing arrest:

• Remain Calm and Cooperative: It's crucial to stay calm and collected during an arrest. Refrain from resisting, arguing, or engaging in any confrontations with law enforcement officers.
• Invoke Your Right to Remain Silent: You have the right to remain silent, as stipulated by the Miranda rights. Politely and clearly state that you wish to remain silent and that you want an attorney present before answering any questions. This helps protect your interests and prevents any potentially self-incriminating statements.
• Request an Attorney: As soon as possible, explicitly request the presence of a Tucson criminal defense attorney. This ensures that you have legal representation during any questioning or legal proceedings.
• Avoid Self-Incrimination: While it's important to remain cooperative, be cautious about providing information that may be used against you. Stick to essential details and avoid volunteering unnecessary information. Let your attorney guide you on what to disclose during questioning.
• Document the Arrest: If possible, take note of the circumstances surrounding your arrest. Record the names and badge numbers of the arresting officers, the time and location of the arrest, and any potential witnesses. This information can be valuable for your defense and may help establish a timeline of events.

Remember, being arrested does not mean you are automatically guilty. With the right legal support, you can navigate the legal process with confidence. Mulembo Law PLLC is here to fight for your rights and ensure a fair and just outcome.
