Laura M. Miranda
Laura Miranda is a truly exceptional criminal defense attorney, a leader with a heart who cares about her clients and the judicial system. A graduate of Cornell, both undergraduate and law school, Ms. Miranda is fluent in both English and Spanish — and her intelligence distinguishes her as advocate with both the experience (more than 17 years as an attorney) and talent necessary to win important cases. In fact, starting with this show, Laura Miranda was exclusively selected to appear special radio show series on The Law Business Insider (www.lbishow.com), “The Mystery Writers of America,” featuring best-selling writers like Scott Turow, John Grisham, Jonathan and Faye Kellerman, Tony Hillerman, Michael Connelly and Carolina Garcia-Aguilera. This week she is joined by Jonathan and Faye Kellerman.
In this exclusive interview, Laura reminds all of us of basic “Miranda” rights:
The Police must inform an accused, s/he has the right to remain silent and anything said can and will be used against him/her in a court of law; an accused has a right to consult with an attorney and to have the attorney present during questioning. Furthermore, the police must also inform the person accused if indigent, a lawyer will be appointed. DO NOT WAIVE YOUR MIRANDA RIGHTS. DO NOT SPEAK, OR SURRENDER YOURSELF TO POLICE WITHOUT AN ATTORNEY PRESENT. You can reach Ms. Miranda directly at 212-629-4500, or email laura.miranda@lawmiranda.com
