You can always hire an expert later if you have to go to trial, but you need someone now in your corner to get you through the first 24 hours or so. By the way, you're going to take the ride anyway, even if you have a lawyer. But having a lawyer is the difference between getting out that same day or night, and spending all your time in jail before appearing before the Grand Jury.
Thanks for the advise. The prepaid route we will probably not do due to the fact that we have made the sacrifice for my wife to raise our child instead of somebody else. Which means money is not coming out our ears. She did work in the same office as a lawyer before she had the baby and I will talk to her and see if we can at least get his number in case of emergency. So I guess the good news is, she knows one at least as an acquaintance.PaJ wrote: Having an attorney is pretty easy. You can become friends with one or hire someone for some small legal support like writing a will. There are services like Prepaid legal that are very affordable and get you legal support for a variety of issues including traffic tickets or arrests. there are specific services like [Pre-paid legal service] who specialize in this type of event. As TAM said, you need someone on your side.
