Criminal Law
Officers are expected to give warnings before questioning a person in custody, and those warnings reflect rights found in the constitution, and asking for a lawyer is not an admission of anything. A statement made after warnings and a statement made without them are treated differently by courts, and the facts of each case differ. Most people have never needed these rules until the moment they do, and they are the same rules a lawyer works from. While you are comparing Criminal Law, start by learning what was said and done at the time of arrest.
