What are my rights during a police interview?

During a police interview, you have the right to remain silent, except for providing your name and address. You are not obligated to answer questions. It is advisable to seek legal advice before participating in a police interview to help ensure your rights are protected.
How can a lawyer assist me if I am facing criminal charges?

A lawyer can provide essential support if you are facing criminal charges. They can advise you on your rights, represent you in court, negotiate with the prosecution and help you understand the legal process. Legal representation aims to ensure that your case is presented effectively and your rights are protected throughout the proceedings.
What are my options if I disagree with a court’s decision?

If you disagree with a court’s decision, you may have the option to appeal. An appeal involves asking a higher court to review the decision, either on the basis of legal errors or because the sentence imposed was too harsh. It’s important to seek legal advice promptly, as filing an appeal requires strict time limits.
