The final part of our Arrested series!

Being arrested is something that they don’t exactly teach you how to handle in school. Many people, when they get arrested or fear getting arrested, don’t have a large community to whom they can turn to ask what the experience will be like. This post is a resource to help answer some basic questions about when you get arrested and some generic tips from someone who has been a district attorney and a criminal defense attorney. This is not legal advice and you should always consult an attorney about your specific situation.
