Arrested in Ayr? Here's What to Do Right Now.
If you've been arrested or detained — whether at Ayr Police Office or elsewhere in Ayrshire — you have a legal right to speak to a solicitor before any interview. Exercise that right immediately.
Do not answer questions without legal advice. The words you use in a police interview can be used against you in court. A criminal defence solicitor can attend the police station with you, advise you on what to say (and what not to say), and ensure the police follow the correct procedures.
