Q – What happens before the Police charge me with a crime?

A - Very often before formal charges are filed, there is an investigation. Law enforcement officers will try to gather as much evidence as possible to build their case against you.

Q – Why is it important to get a lawyer now? 

A – Because this pre-file stage can be the most important stage of a criminal case. Since you haven't been arrested, you don't have any Miranda Rights.

Q – What kind of sneaky police traps are you talking about?

A - Most people want to defend themselves and their actions. But remember this.  The police are allowed to lie to you about evidence.  The police are allowed to lie to you about anything they want.  The police WILL lie to get you to talk to them.  Most people want to explain what they know and most people want to explain what happened.  The police use that to their advantage.  The police will try and tell you they are on your “side”.  The police will say they just want to know what happened so they can close their file.  The police will tell you that if you’re just honest, there won’t be any charges.  Lies, lies, lies.  Remember this.  The police are allowed to lie to you to get you to talk to them.  Resist the temptation to talk!  Call local Bakersfield Criminal Lawyers, Fred Gagliardini and Mary McGrath, at 755-5757.

Q – Why should I call you and not some other lawyer?

A – Because we have the experience.  Plain and simple.  You need an attorney before you talk to anyone. Getting the right attorney immediately can prevent charges from being filed in the first place.
