Our criminal law and traffic defense practice:

When you want it done right, go to someone with experience. Mr. Connelly has experience in, and is prepared to vigorously defend clients facing a broad range of charges, including those involving the following issues:

Talk to your lawyer, not the police

Common questions we hear are "Should I answer the police officer's questions?" and "Do I need a lawyer for a traffic matter ?" If you are facing any criminal or traffic charge, and would like to discuss our criminal defense services, please contact our Charlotte office to arrange a free consultation. Protect your rights and talk to an attorney.

Law enforcement officials and prosecutors may try to convince or coerce you into giving a statement with a false promise of favorable treatment. Avoid "hanging yourself." Whatever benefit you get from answering questions without an attorney present is far outweighed by the damage you will do to your case. The most important thing to remember if confronted by law enforcement is to say and do nothing. You are never required to give evidence or testimony against yourself. Whatever information the police want can always be provided through your attorney at a later date, and should only be given if it is beneficial to you.
