Hired Attorney

Honestly I was fighting for my life which made this experience very scary. This attorney basically ignored me. He knew of an arrest that was going to take place yet he didn’t tell me about it and the prosecutor that he had been in contact with chose to arrest me at my house. At that point I felt like I had to fight this in my own way. To this day I am suffering with PTSD over this experience. Obviously there is a ton more to explain but I can’t in this context.
