Often times, the defense attorney can help resolve a situation before law enforcement even file formal charges or formally arrests you. For example, when a possible burglary has occurred, a detective usually ants to speak to all "persons of interest" or "suspects." Because most Theft Crimes, particularly burglary, are not witnessed, it is essential that you remain silent when contacted by a detective, even if you feel that you have done nothing wrong. This right to remain silent is extremely important because often times, law enforcement use the suspect's words against him or her to justify filing charges against them. If contacted by the police to "discuss" a possible theft case, simply decline the interview, get the detective's name and contact information and call a defense lawyer at the firm immediately. An experienced and aggressive theft crime attorney will be able to evaluate your case and determine the necessary actions to take to best protect your rights.

As soon as you have been arrested or even if you are aware that you are under investigation or suspected in a crime, you should speak with a lawyer who has experience in the area of theft crimes.
