This is a serious situation. The questions you ask are very important. You do need to retain an attorney and the sooner the better. It would be irresponsible to try to answer your questions based upon the information you have provided.
This answer is intended to inform, not to advise. No one should attempt to interpret or apply any law without the aid of an attorney.
You don't say if you were charged with a felony or a misdemeanor. Either way, you should have a lawyer to protect your rights and your immigration status. I am a former prosecutor and now do criminal defense work so please feel free to contact me.
