If you are facing any kind of criminal charge in Brooklyn, NY, this can be an incredibly challenging situation for you, whether you know you have done something wrong and broken the law or are facing a wrongful accusation.

A criminal case can result from making a mistake, being in the wrong place at the wrong time, or an instance of mistaken identity. When you are arrested for a crime, it can easily feel as though the entire system is working against you and that your situation is hopeless. This is not true in any criminal matter, and the right Brooklyn criminal defense attorney can be a tremendous asset that helps you face your situation and overcome it with confidence.
What to Do After an Arrest
If you are arrested in Brooklyn for any reason, it is vital to understand and exercise your Constitutional rights and to know the best first steps to take in this situation. Every American citizen has the right to legal representation when they have been arrested, and it is vital to acknowledge the importance of this Constitutional right. Without an attorney by your side, it’s possible that the law enforcement officers handling your arrest and booking may violate your rights and the laws of due process. You also have the right to remain silent, and you should exercise this right as well. Anything you say during and after your arrest can potentially work against you as the state builds its criminal case against you.
Speaking with an attorney as soon as possible after an arrest is one of the most important steps to forming a defense against the charges you face. The police will look for anything and everything they can find to use against you as they build their case for prosecution. They will not only look for evidence to convict you on the grounds for your arrest but also look for additional evidence that would allow them to tack on additional charges to your case. For example, if you are arrested for drug possession and say the wrong thing during your arrest or attempt to protest the situation, the police may attempt to charge you with obstruction or resisting arrest. Conviction numbers are important for them, so do not expect them to show you any leniency.
The Brooklyn criminal defense attorneys at the Law Offices of Robert Tsigler, PLLC can provide the individualized attention your case deserves.
