If you are facing a serious criminal allegation, obtaining legal advice promptly is prudent. Do not assume that an informal conversation cannot affect the case.

Take the invitation seriously and find out the allegation and the status of the proceeding. Your lawyer can advise on attendance, representation and any statement that may be required.
