Just because a charge may be dropped by law does not mean the judge must drop the charge. It is always advisable to have an attorney at any hearing. My office will be happy to help you in this pursuit.

9,999 out of 10,000 times, you will not need an attorney. If you qualify for the diversion program, you should take the offer.

Necessary? No. Advisable? Yes -- especially if you have already been in such a program and/or have prior drug convictions.
