Of course you can hire an attorney to make your appearances, as long as it is a misdemeanor, not a felony, you are charged with. You were given a charging sheet when released from jail, or received a letter from the DA, telling you the charges and when you you had to go to court. Feel free to contact me if serious about getting counsel.
Re: bail and appearing in court
Yes, an attorney could investigate your case prior to filing any charges, very often a very good idea. He/she can also appear in court without if your case is a misdemeanor. You have to be present at hearings if felony charges are involved.
Feel free to contact me for free consultation.
