No one here know anything about your charges or the purpose of your court date, other than the few details you posted. People with criminal charges, who take them seriously, get lawyers. Otherwise, you risk a conviction and starting your adult life with problems getting a job, getting into school, the military, and sometimes even apartments or housing. Most people consider these things important enough to get a good lawyer.
