Proving that you were framed is not always possible, but if it is possible than it takes serious investigation and legal work. You should engage a legal professional, in our opinion, in a serious case like this. If you can not afford an attorney, then you should ask the court to assign a public... View More

The police can enter your yard without permission if there is public access or if there is probable cause. Police brutality, however, is unacceptable and should be reported to a police supervisor.

Could you keep driving (essentially making it a hit and run) because you felt unsafe to pull over and get out of the car? Is there a legal way to do this? Like calling the cops to explain the...

You should always keep yourself safe at all costs. Our opinion is that it's better to try and sort out a criminal charge later than put yourself in danger now. That being said, this is tricky because many people have fled the scene of an accident out of fear, only to deal with a hit and run... View More
