So I did something pretty bad. I need to lie to my lawyer to make sure no one knows I ever did it. What are some body cues I need to avoid to not tip off that I'm lying?

When being questioned, there are a number of non-verbal clues that can make it easier for your lawyer to detect when you're lying. Avoid fidgeting or making excessive movements. Keep your eyes level and don’t look away quickly when answering questions. Stay still and avoid playing with objects like jewelry or utensils on the table. If you become nervous, take slow, deep breaths and maintain focus on the person asking questions

Some body cues to avoid when lying include averting eyes or gazing intently at a fixed object, trembling or fidgeting, shifting weight from one leg to another, touching and rubbing the skin as though attempting to comfort oneself, breathing too quickly or too slowly and hunching the shoulders inwards.
