CRIMINAL

Never consent to search of your home or motor vehicle if the police ask for your permission.

Never make a statement to the police outside the presence of your attorney.

Always invoke your right to remain silent and hire an attorney.

Absent overwhelming evidence, most defendants are convicted on the basis of their own statements to police.

Items seized during a search may later be suppressed (kept out of evidence) if the police did not strictly follow the law.
