Need opinions on if a lawyer is worth it.
Hi everyone,
My roommate was arrested and was charged with intoxication and failure to identify (both misdemeanors). She has a good job in the financing industry. She hasn’t been able to get a hold of her police report yet and she doesn’t remember what happened.
She spoke to a lawyer who quoted her $2,000. The goal would be to get charges dismissed if possible.
We just aren’t sure if it would be worth getting a lawyer for her or not. It’s frustrating that she may not be able to get her police report by her court date.
Any advice/recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
