Legal Question in Criminal Law in Colorado
I've found myself getting into criminal trouble most of my life & few of my charges have been seen through fully.Instead I've moved to another county or state depending on the severity of the charges,which has been no problem for me since I was 12yo I've been completely on my own.Now I find myself aged & overwhelmed by many warrants in multiple states.A few days ago I came back to within extradition range of several warrants for my arrest,hoping that'll motivate my getting to work on these issues.I haven't been arrested in years. Also never been in prison & I hope I can avoid going now @ 35yo.It's hard to know where to start but I'd think legal representation would be a good place.So my question is can I hire an attorney or firm here to help me through criminal(felony&mis;)charges in multiple states outside of the one in which I'm currently living?It may be a stupid question,which wouldn't suprise me because I'm totally uneducated(nearly computer illiterate as well).That's why I'm asking here rather than embarrasing myself in public.Thank you.

Unless that attorney is licensed in all of your problem states, no. You'll need an attorney in each state.
