If you are under arrest or investigation, do not resist arrest!
Give your name, address and provide identification if you are asked to do so — be respectful and polite.
Stay calm! Remember that you have rights - use them!
Politely but firmly tell the police you do not want to talk to them without your lawyer present.
Our firm vigorously defends the rights and freedom of people accused of all types of crimes in Connecticut. Whether it involves charges of: assault, sexual assault, robbery, theft, DUI, drug possession and/or sales, domestic violence, or any other felony, misdemeanor, or serious motor vehicle offense, we will work hard to achieve the best results for you.
If your University of Connecticut or Eastern Connecticut State University student has been arrested for underage drinking, DUI, using a fake ID, breach of peace, disorderly conduct, drug possession and/or sales, assault, sexual assault, or any other misdemeanor, felony or serious motor vehicle charge, we will provide knowledgeable defense against the charges and help the student address university sanctions as well.
Whenever possible, we seek outcomes that help you avoid a criminal conviction, jail and a criminal record. For example, you may qualify for more lenient treatment by the court as a Youthful Offender (YO) or you may be eligible for a pretrial diversionary program that could be used to divert your case out of the criminal justice system and save you from a criminal conviction. Such programs include: Accelerated Rehabilitation (AR), Alcohol Education Program (AEP), Drug Education Program (DEP), Community Service Labor Program (CSLP), Family Violence Education Program (FVEP), School Violence Prevention Program (SVPP), and several others. We will work hard to obtain the best result for you. For more details about pretrial diversionary programs please visit Alternatives to Jail / Divisionary Programs.
Your Future Is Important to Us
If a criminal trial is necessary, we will vigorously defend you. We will carefully examine, analyze and discuss with you the evidence against you—and in your favor. We will explain to you in plain English what the prosecution must prove to convict you of the crimes charged and we will explore potential defenses and legal defense strategies we may employ in our efforts to defeat the prosecution's case. We will do all we can to defend you, preserve your freedom and protect your future. You can help by heeding the following advice:
• Do not talk to the police!
• Do not talk to anyone about your arrest or case except your lawyer!
• Do not sign or give any statements!
No matter what they might tell you, THE POLICE ARE NOT TRYING TO HELP YOU when you are under arrest or investigation.
