What To Do When Police Stop And Frisk You
May 13, 2015
When you are stopped by the police, you have some basic rights. Some of them they read to you with the Miranda rights, sometimes they don’t read the Miranda rights.
Now these rights you have whether you are stopped for a reason or whether you’re stopped for no reason. You do not have to consent to a search. You tell the police if they ask to search you, “I do not consent to a search.” Sometimes they won’t ask, they will just start searching you. That’s when you say, “I do not consent to a search.”
If you don’t say anything, then legally you’re giving them your consent, so you have to verbally say those words. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be used against you and that’s why you should not talk to the police about anything without a lawyer present. So when the police ask you questions, you say, “I will not talk. I want my lawyer.”
And you wait for your lawyer to get there.
You want to know if you’re being arrested. You ask. “Am I Free to go?”
You want to know if you’re being arrested. You ask. “Am I Free to go?”
Because the police can lie to you and say. “No. I’m not detaining you. NO, you’re not being arrested,” but yet they’re not letting you go. So the straightforward way to find out if you’re being detained or arrested is ask, “Am I free to go?” If they say yes, then you calmly walk away. If they say no, then understand you are being detained and you remain calm and continue to invoke your rights

Personal Injury
If you are injured as a result of an accident, you need to get the proper medical care right away. If you delay, it can be harder to prove your injuries resulted from the car accident.
Your payment for care will depend on the coverages in your policy. If you are not at fault, your bills will be paid for by the other driver's liability coverage. If you live in a no-fault state, however, you can seek payment from your personal injury protection (PIP) coverage to get your bills without the delay of negotiation between companies.
You can also seek payment from:
- Medical payments coverage, if it's included in your policy.
- Uninsured motorist coverage, if you have it and you were hit by an uninsured or underinsured driver (or were in a hit and run accident).
- Your health insurance policy.
When You Need a Personal Injury Attorney
As you seek reimbursement, remember that it's extremely common to get pushback on these expenses. Insruance companies try to avoid paying more than they need to and will check to make sure all the expenses are valid. Keep all of your documentation and receipts. If you continue to have trouble getting your medical bills paid, seek the counsel of a personal injury attorney.
Attorneys have experience working with insurance providers to get the highest possible settlement amounts for clients.
They also have experience getting compensation for general damages that are difficult to determine, such as:
- Pain and suffering.
- Mental anguish.
For example, if you've lost your vision due to an accident resulting from another driver's negligence, a personal injury lawyer can help you get general damages in addition to the actual costs of your medical bills.
