Legal Question in Criminal Law in Indiana

violation of interstate compact

I transfered my probation to the state in which I resided, I caught a case while out of state. I dropped dirty twice, but complied with current probation agent and have been doing very well. The dirty drops occured over a year ago, no violations since then. Now the state inwhich I originally was charged now wants me to appear before them on 01-09-2009 and they stated it would be in my best inttrest to have a lawyer present. I am having a hard time finding and obtaining a lawyer from Indiana, considering I live in Michigan. What can I do to appear in court with proper counsil? My current probation officer has also sent letters to the judge informing him of my positive progress, informing the courts that I complied with all required repramand and have been doing well since the last violation.

Re: violation of interstate compact

Our office handles Criminal Law, and would be more than happy to speak to you about the possibilites of representation. Sometimes, in a situation like this the attorney can get an agreement to where you may not have to show up for court. It all depends on the violation. If you can, please email or call asap if you wish to have our office represent you as we will need time to collect information and be able to present evidence on your behalf. At this close stage, we would probably need to file a continuance to have time to prepare. Please call our office as we can discuss in more detail.
