A: If you are facing potential charges, the best thing to do is consult with a criminal defense attorney who can advise you on your specific situation and legal options. An attorney can review the details of your case and help protect your rights. In general, if you are concerned about outstanding warrants or possible charges, it's wise to deal with the situation proactively by seeking legal counsel. I would strongly advise against attempting to evade law enforcement. Focus on getting proper legal advice and representation to handle this in an above-board manner.
