Do Not Talk to Anyone Before Getting a Lawyer

One of the most critical decisions an accused or person being investigated for a crime will make is whether to have communication with law enforcement, or with anyone else (other than their attorney) about the matter being investigated. There should be no confusion; there is never a good reason to answer any questions put to you by any police officer or third party in the context of an investigation without first consulting with a White Plains criminal defense attorney.

No matter what promises are made to you, it is never the right decision to speak with law enforcement about the circumstances surrounding the detention. Often times, the police will provide a person who has been arrested with Miranda warnings in an effort to have the arrested party give a statement, confession or other information. Rather than answering any questions, you should contact an experienced Elmsford criminal defense attorney immediately. While there are people who think they can talk themselves out of an investigation and avoid arrest, that is almost never the case, and the probability that you will give information that will be harmful (while you might not intend to) is high. Leave the talking to the White Plains criminal defense attorney and instead, invoke your constitutional right to remain silent.

Our Testimonials

  • "As a former prosecutor and a seasoned defense attorney, when I needed to build the right team to try a high stakes felony case, I turned to John."
    I am a former prosecutor in New York City and have been a defense lawyer for almost 15 years. Some years ago, I was involved in defending a felony DWI case on behalf of a client. Knowing the high stakes involved in the case, I turned to John Raimondo not only as a pre-trial, consultant but also to try the case with me. I knew that Mr. Raimondo would make an invaluable member of the defense team. John exceeded my expectations and exemplified the skill and integrity that every client should want in their attorney.
    - Andrew B. (admitted member of the bar)
  • "I recommend Mr. Raimondo to anyone I know who needs an excellent lawyer who is compassionate and truly cares about his clients."
    Over the last several years, I turned to John to represent me in several cases. One case was originally charged as a felony DWI and John was able to fight to get me a reduction to a misdemeanor. I know it is very rare for a felony DWI charge to get reduced to a misdemeanor and I know it was John’s dedication that led to that result. I have repeatedly recommended John to members of my family and anyone who has requested my reference to an attorney. I can not say enough about John; he is the one lawyer who I trust is always on my side.

  • "I was found not guilty after trial with a blood alcohol reading two times the legal limit."
    I was charged with a DWI with a blood alcohol reading which was two times the legal limit in the Town of Mamaroneck. John tried to do everything to resolve the case before trial. The prosecution would not compromise and so Mr. Raimondo requested a jury trial on my behalf. From the beginning it was apparent that Mr. Raimondo had a strategy to win my case and even though the reading was so high; that is what happened. After several days of trial, the jury found me not guilty of all DWI charges. I never really believed that there was anyway he would be able to get me off of these charges, but he did it”
    - K.B.
  • "Sympathetic, confident and true professional."
    After calling the office, John got back to me right away with alot of knowledge about my situation. He was very sympathetic, professional and most of all confident. I went into my situation scared and unsure of what was going to happen. He was able to put my mind at ease, everything happened exactly how he explained it with out any surprises. He’s very efficient in his work. I highly recommend him.
