Should I talk to an Investigator or Defense Attorney about the case?
The defense attorney or his investigator is performing a legal duty by investigating the case. If the defendant is indigent, the attorney and investigator may be appointed by the court; however, they are not working for the judge. You are free to discuss or refuse to discuss the case with the defense attorney or anyone employed by the defense. We are available and willing to assist you should you decide to discuss the case with the defense. Require anyone who claims to be investigating the case to show identification. If you have any concerns, feel free to call our office before you discuss the case with anyone.
