Your Rights During a Police Stop, Search, or Interrogation

Knowing your rights if you are stopped by the police can help you avoid common mistakes and fundamentally influence the ultimate results of your case.

To start with, you have the right to remain silent and the right to ask for an attorney. You generally do not have to consent to searches. You need to understand what Miranda rights actually do (and don’t) protect you from.

Statements made under stress or confusion can still be used as evidence, so it’s best to say nothing without an attorney’s advice. Calm, respectful assertion of your rights can protect you long before your case reaches court.
