Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York
Several People, One Charge
3 Friends and I were charged with
smoking marijuana in public in New
York City. We all have the same
charge, and our DATs all cite the
same time and place for our court
date. Can we hire one lawyer
together, or do we each need our
own?

It depends on the circumstances, you may all be able to have same attorney if the defenses do not conflict.
