You are likely unfamiliar with the legal definitions of disorderly conduct, and thus how to defend the charges. An attorney will know how to cross examine the police on this. I practice statewide. Where are you located? Email me with any questions.

An attorney would definitely be useful. It shouldn't cost a fortune either.

Depending on what area you are in, I would be glad to help you or refer you to someone closer to you.
