Orlando, FL asked in Criminal Law for Florida

Q: Hello I have a friend who was arrested on an accusation. Are there any criminal lawyers who are willing to help. Please!

The only so called "Evidence" they have is the ex- girlfriends accusation. He was declared indigent and has been Sitting in jail because he cannot afford bail. Judge denied a bond reduction because he has a prior.

He feels as if the public defender is not doing anything in his defense and is scared that his freedom is on the line because his public defender is not properly handling the situation. Is there any Criminal defense attorneys who are willing to please help my friend either Pro Bono or at a substantially reduced rate on a payment plan in the Middleburg/ Green Cove Springs, clay county Area in florida?
