Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

I plead guilty in CA to being under the influence of drugs. 1st time offender. My sentence was public work service. I didn't do it because I was using and living on the street, so a warrant was issued. I moved to my grandma's in Alabama to go clean. If I hire a lawyer in CA to represent me and request my hours be converted to a fine, what are my chances?
