Invoking the Right to Counsel

Clearly and unequivocally asserting the right to speak to an attorney and ceasing to answer questions.

What Right Law Group attorneys say

“The main thing to remember is if you're going to stick to your guns and say I'm not going to answer. Number one, ask for an attorney and make it unequivocal. In other words, if you say well I think I'd like to talk to an attorney. But then you continue answering questions. You have not invoked your right to speak to an attorney. Be very clear and direct. I will not talk to you without an attorney. I need to talk to my attorney. And then do not answer any other questions.”
