Know your rights

General information for families in San Dimas and the surrounding 50 miles. This is not legal advice and it does not create an attorney-client relationship.

If you are stopped

You have the right to remain silent. You do not have to answer questions about where you were born or how you entered the country.
You have the right to speak to a lawyer before you sign anything.
Do not sign a document you do not understand. Signing can waive a hearing.
You may ask if you are free to leave. If the officer says yes, leave calmly.

If someone comes to your door

You do not have to open the door unless the officer shows a warrant signed by a judge, with your correct address.
An ICE administrative warrant is not a judge's warrant. Ask them to slide it under the door or hold it to a window.
Say that you do not consent to a search.
