What to do if I have a warrant for my arrest and want to solve this as peacefully as I can?

It was involving a dispute between me and my father over forcing me onto medications at 24. We have had previous issues in which my father has not only controlled me but my family for many years. There has been a previous history of this. I do not want a simple argument between me and my father to ruin my chances at getting into the charity organizations I want to volunteer for. I want to solve this peacefully. I am homeless and I have no money to afford an attorney. There is a much larger family history that needs to be looked at besides myself.

You can go to the police and turn yourself in.  A free attorney will be appointed to represet you; hope that you get a good one.  Tell your attorney everything and trust that s/he will be able to sort this out so that you will have a good outcome.
