What to do when you find yourself in a "use of force" situation

1. The first thing you need to do is contact 9-1-1.

2. The dispatcher will ask you what you need. You will only ask for the dispatcher to send the police and paramedics (if someone is injured at the location).

3. The dispatcher may ask you what has happened. DO NOT TELL THE DISPATCHER ANYTHING other than that you need the police and the paramedics.

4. Why? BECAUSE YOUR PHONE CALL IS BEING RECORDED. ANYTHING YOU SAY CAN AND WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU IN A COURT OF LAW !!!

5. Do not argue with the dispatcher. Do not try and explain your situation to the dispatcher. Do not think you are going to convince anyone over the phone that you are justified in your actions.

6. Once the police are enroute to your location, your next call should be to Concealed Carry Legal Services. Let your lawyer do your talking for you. It could save your freedom and your life.

7. If necessary, CCLS will send a legal representative to your scene, who will speak with you and then guide you through one of the most stressful events of your life.
