Criminal Defendant's

If you are one of our client's with a criminal matter, it is very important that you follow our instructions.

You are always innocent until proven guilty period!

You have the right to an attorney and to defend yourself against all criminal charges against you.

Never talk to anyone about your case without one of our attorney's being present. The person you talk about the case too could end up being a witness against you!

You may be under law enforcement surveillance via a Court issued warrant, or without a warrant in places where you do not have a reasonable expectation of privacy such as a shopping mall. Expect that you are under surveillance and act accordingly.

Always remember that anything you say can and will be used against you in a Court of Law.

You have what is called an "attorney/client privilege." What this means is that our firm cannot under California Law, disclose anything that you say to us without your permission period. Never repeat communications between our firm and you, to a third party or you may unknowingly waive your right to attorney/client privilege.

Never talk about your case to the news media without our being present.

If you are incarcerated, and you are one of our client's we will accept collect calls from you. Remember that jail house phones and mail are routinely monitored and screened. If you need to talk about your case, let us know, and we will come to you as soon as possible to discuss your case in private.

Do not discuss your case with cellmates or persons in jail.

Remember, your freedom, your future, and potentially your life is on the line. You failure to follow our instructions could seriously affect the outcome of your case.

If you have any questions about your criminal case with our firm, please feel free to call us at 818-584-8831.
