It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced criminal defense attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.

You can turn yourself in to the police directly, or you can surrender to the court which issued the arrest warrant, or you can retain an attorney to assist you in the process. You can call the court or police department yourself and find out what the charges are and whether bail has been set. If there is a bond, and it is more than you can afford, you can call a bondsperson and make arrangements for him or her to appear when you do to bond you out as soon as possible. If this sounds too difficult, you should retain a criminal defense attorney in your area. He or she will easily be able to obtain the information on your charges and bail amount. Also, if bail is set in an amount too high for you to post, he or she can try to have it lowered at your first appearance and/or arrange for you or your family to meet with a bondsperson if you don't know any. Another reason to retain a lawyer for the surrender process is to reduce the opportunity for you to be asked questions and potentially incriminate yourself. A lawyer will act as an intermediary between you and the police, thereby preserving your constitutional right against self-incrimination.
