A:
Thanks for sharing. No question asked
If you do, try spelling out words. Write in single sentences and not in run on sentences.
Take the time since you are asking a lawyer to respond for free
A:
more info would be needed.
however per your call stating this is in Sunnyvale I think you should contact a lawyer in that area and not palm springs where I am located. i don't know procedures there.
i would suggest you google a criminal lawyer in that city and talk to him/her.
as a rule, i don't let my clients talk to the police. i suggest they use me as a strawman and say they would be glad to talk but their lawyer has advised them not to do that without their being there too.
then the lawyer can take the heat and be the bad guy.
A: The most bedrock piece of advice any criminal defense attorney can give is not to speak with the police. If the police attempt to contact you, it is usually a good idea to tell them that you do not wish to answer any questions or that you do not wish to answer any questions without an attorney.
