You will need to retain defense counsel. There could be some very serious money damages.

Wow, you really need to speak to an attorney ASAP. This is very serious. In my opinion, you should treat this like a criminal case even if charges are not pressed, it is just that serious. You need to get a good attorney that will throw everything at this case.

My initial consultations are always free, so call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss this case.

That's pretty serious, because it's reproductive problem in a young person. You need to hire local counsel, --don't fool around trying to solve this with free online advice.

I know thi is becoming an old saw, but try to mediate this case, even if it starts in court. Both kids have been traumatized enough, don't you think?
