In any encounter with law enforcement, understanding your rights is crucial to ensuring fair treatment and protection under the law. When it comes to police interviews, individuals possess certain rights designed to safeguard them from self-incrimination and uphold their constitutional protections.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
From the initial conversation with Mr. Hebets, I knew he was the attorney to hire. He and his staff are always available to answer questions and address concerns. In my opinion, this is the best law firm in Denver!! Thanks for all of your help!!!!!!
All I can say in a few words that they are so professional and available for their clients, I've had the worst experience but the lawyer handled it so well, thank you so much McCallin.
Thank you for going to bat for me and allowing the court system to see the case my way! If I know of anyone who needs a great lawyer, I know who to send them to!
Thank you so much for everything you have done for me! I can't tell you how glad I am to put this all behind me.
Just a quick note to thank you for a job well done. Evan was very relieved when we left the courthouse yesterday (as was I). We will keep your name and number with hopes that we will never have to contact you professionally again.
I wanted to take a moment to say "Thank you very much!" We trusted our son's life in your hands. Thank you for taking care of him and in treating him with dignity and respect. I pray that He will bless you and yours abundantly.
