Having a lawyer doesn't mean you can just not answer questions when subpoenad. "Don't talk to cops" is complicated.

If you've been subpoenaed, you're not talking to a cop, so "don't talk to cops" isn't complicated at all.

The full phrase - "don't talk to cops except upon the advice of your lawyer" - isn't complicated either.

Yes, it is complicated. And that is why you need the lawyer.

I missed where it said he didn't have a lawyer?
