Q: Can I obtain legal council pro bono I’m so not have a job or any money since being released from prison a year ago
I have a co defendant that is incarcerated for the charges of possession of cannabis greater than 20 grams
It is said that I have charges coming against me for sales of meth months prior
A: If you are charged with a crime and cannot afford a private attorney, the Court will likely appoint an attorney to represent you at no cost to you. If you are seeking advice about your situation though not yet charged with anything, call criminal defense attorneys in your area, and you will probably be able to get some free advice on how to conduct yourself if you are being investigated.
