What Are Miranda Rights Or Miranda Warnings?

Attorney Eric T. Kirk will tell you.

You never have to talk to the police if you chose not to.

Transcript

We’ve all seen on TV over the years someone getting their Miranda rights. We all know that you have a right to an attorney. If you can’t afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you. You don’t have to talk to the police at all, or if you want to talk, you can have an attorney present. Anytime an individual is undergoing a custodial interrogation, questioning by police under circumstances where they don’t feel they are free to leave, they have to be given these rights.

I advise not talking to the police, at least not without counsel.

I hope this addressed your question. Over the course of 25 years, I’ve found that fully addressing a legal question is best handled in a one-on-one, in person strategy and case analysis conference. I offer these to potential clients on a complimentary basis. Please use any of the methods under the contact tab at the top of the page to arrange yours.
