# What do I do if my Norwegian friend is arrested in the US?

Your friend should remain silent and request a lawyer immediately. Do not answer any questions beyond identification. Contact the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Washington, D.C. or the Royal Norwegian Consulate General in New York for consular assistance — they can help find a local attorney and contact family in Norway, but cannot provide legal representation. Call Attorney Rory Munns at 401-573-2265 for immediate Massachusetts criminal defense help.
