Q: I have a pre-trial hearing coming up May 2nd, 2016 regarding being arrested and charged with false information to police
I need to know if there are any pro bono or free representation being offered from any attorney on this website. I was arrested at my place of work I'm in the legal field and I lost my job because of this. Never been accused or charged with anything.. clean record. The police wanted to shut me up because I had to call in the past regarding a domestic abuse situation had nothing to do with this reason to have them check my house because my old roommate kept leaving my house unsecured. Asked for a police drive by to check my home. They ultimately believe my roommate that I never left my house which makes no sense and they came all the way to my work in Hennepin County and arrested me at work. I'm still traumatized from the whole situation and this will affect my future employment if charged. Needed help !!!
