5 Things to do after a "use of force or deadly force" situation
|
|
|
1. Call 911 first
2. The dispatcher will ask you what you need. Tell the dispatcher you need police, and paramedics if you or someone else is injured.
3. The dispatcher may ask you what has happened. DO NOT TELL THE DISPATCHER ANYTHING other than that you need the police and the paramedics. You phone call is being recorded, and your statements to the dispatcher could be used against you in court.
4. Your next call is to your Lawyer. Pre-Paid Legal Services has an emergency number 24/7 and will connect you with your lawyer within 30 seconds to 2 minutes, most likely before the police arrive on scene.
5. When the police arrive on scene provide them your identification including your Driver's License, Concealed Handgun License AND your Pre-Paid Legal Membership Card. Your Lawyer will stay on the line with you. Be cooperative with the officer, you want the officer to remember you are the victim. Your Lawyer will request to speak to the officer on your behalf and help you through this situation.

REMEMBER... if you are not able to call your Lawyer right away, you have 72 hours to sign a written statement. DO NOT SIGN YOUR STATEMENT WITHOUT LEGAL COUNSEL
