Hello there,

It would be an ethical violation for the DA to talk to you without your lawyer being present.

Re: innocent

Based on what you have written, it appears that you have a lawyer representing you. Therefore, the DA would be violating ethics by speaking with you without your attorney present. If you do not have a lawyer to assist you with this legal matter, then you may speak with the DA. Just be cautious with what you tell the DA because it may be later used against you. If my local criminal defense law firm can assist you with this legal issue or any other legal matter, please contact my paralegal Tina ([email protected]) to arrange for an initial consultation.
