What You Should Do If You Are Arrested in North Carolina
The legal system can be a frightening experience, and when faced with arrest, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Law enforcement may appear confident in their prosecution against you - but remember that the presumption of innocence is still yours. You should educate yourself on your rights so that you know how best to navigate this difficult situation.
Steps to Take Following an Arrest in North Carolina
- Remain Calm and Respectful with Law Enforcement In any circumstance involving law enforcement, it is important to remain respectful and polite. While emotions can run high in such situations, you should do your best to keep calm and not resist arrest.
- Avoid Making Statements to Police Without Counsel You should simply provide basic information like name and contact details that are needed for booking paperwork.
- Secure Legal Representation Immediately Requesting a lawyer as soon as possible is key for protecting yourself against self-incrimination or further distress.
- Document the Arrest Details for Your Defense To ensure accuracy during proceedings afterward, taking mental notes on all that transpires – including witnesses present during the arrest and interactions with police officers– could prove very helpful in down the line if legal action ensues later on.
