Whether the law requires you to state your name or produce ID depends on the circumstances, as discussed in other threads in this forum.

Many if not most cops will let you look in your phone and write down numbers during the process of inventorying your possessions at book-in. You could memorize your attorney's phone number or have it tattooed on your face to balance the tear tattoo by one eye.
If you can keep your head about you during a stressful situation, the officer shouldn't become angry because you refuse to answer questions. You can say something like, "Officer Nightstick, I'd really like to answer your questions. But I have this asshole of a lawyer, ShysterJon, who insists that he be present if I'm talking to the police. May I call him?" Then, if you have me on retainer like a prudent hobbyist, you call me.

If a provider persists in discussing services or money after you ignore them or even tell them you don't want to talk about services or money, stop communicating with them. It's that simple. It's a red flag with a pair of handcuffs on it.
