Julie C. Tizzard
Montejo v. Louisiana, No. 07-1529 (May 26, 2009): Overruled Michigan v. Jackson, a rule that forbids police from initiating interrogation of a criminal defendant once he has invoked his right to counsel at an arraignment of or similar proceeding. Court reasoned that Michigan was “unworkable” in jurisdictions where counsel was appointed regardless of any request made by the defendant. The Court held that an actual invocation is necessary to trigger the protections of the Sixth Amendment, as opposed to silent acceptance of an appointed counsel or the failure to ask for counsel. In the case at bar, the Court found that the defendant “stood mute at his hearing while the judge ordered the appointment of counsel” and did not assert his Sixth Amendment Rights.

Sentiment Analysis
She is thorough and prepared, always on time, and the one time she had an unexpected conflict she sent a colleague who was fully up to speed on my case.
She fights extremely hard for her clients and works long hours until her clients are exonerated!!
Julie provided me with top notch legal help, combined with genuine compassion and kindness.
I felt that she was very honest and would recommend her to everyone.
I have known Attorney Julie Tizzard for a couple of years and continue to be impressed with her work ethic.
Julie's ability to fearlessly and effectively advocate so strongly for her clients inside the courtroom is a direct result of her unwavering dedication towards diligently preparing her clients' cases outside of the courtroom.
