Yes. Contact your local defender's office or go down to the courthouse to get the forms. Check online as well, they might have been uploaded by the main court system administrator.
There is a qualification process, but basically, if you're too poor to afford a lawyer and the crime is serious, you should get an appointed lawyer.
