You’ve been arrested by the police. Handcuffs on. A night at the police station. Maybe even a bail hearing.

Welcome to my blog! At the outset I want to be as clear as possible: everything on this blog and sewrattan.com are my thoughts and legal information only. This blog is not legal advice. Reading this blog does not make me your lawyer and you should not make legal decisions based on the information in this blog. Instead, contact a lawyer who can discuss the issues with you.
