When Do I Have The Right To An Attorney In Baltimore?
Attorney Eric T. Kirk will tell you.
At any critical stage of the proceeding.
Transcript
An accused individual has a right to have an attorney present at all critical stages of a criminal prosecution. Certainly, at an arraignment where their criminal charges are read, at any motion’s hearing where a substantive decision might be made on the case, and certainly at trial or on appeal. The individual also has a right to have an attorney present during what’s called a custodial interrogation. That’s where an individual -whether or not formally arrested -is being questioned by police under circumstances where he or she feels they have no right to leave the interrogation room.
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.
