Overview
Whether you have been charged with a drug offense, DUI (drunk driving) or any other type of criminal offense, it is important to know your rights. The following amendments of the U.S. Constitution are particularly important to know:
- The 4th Amendment protects you against an unreasonable search and seizure. For instance, if you have been charged with a drug offense, but the evidence was retrieved by an illegal search, the evidence may not be usable in court.
- The 5th Amendment grants you the right to remain silent. If you have not already talked to law enforcement officer, do not do so until you have consulted an attorney.
- The 6th Amendment guarantees your right to a qualified, competent attorney of your choice.
