Whenever a person has been charged with a criminal offense it is always in his or her best interests to consult with and retain a criminal defense attorney. The reason is that whenever the charge is a criminal offense there is always the possibility of jail time if the person is convicted of the crime alleged.
I suggest that you take the hint from the judge that you have been before three (3) times about your need for a criminal defense attorney. He or she knows something more about your situation than what you seem to know about it.
