Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York
My son went went down to NYC for St.Patrick's Day. That evening when heading into Grand Cantral to take the train home, he went to enter a door which he thought would let him into the station. He went to push the door open and it was locked. He is a big strong kid and when he pushed on it , something broke on the door. Well , it happened to belong to a business next door. The owner called the police and wanted them to arrest him . That didn't want to but he insisted. He told him it was an accident and he would pay for the door and he didn't care. He was charged with criminal mischief in the 4th degree. He had to travel 90 miles to go to his court Appearance in 2 weeks. We feel he needs a lawyer for this. He has never been in any kind of trouble before. Does he really need a lawyer for this and how do we obtain a lawyer in NYC? Thank you
