The honest answer is that no attorney can predict the outcome, nor even give an intelligent opinion, without reviewing and knowing all the evidence, police reports, expected testimony, priors history, etc.

You are always entitled to represent yourself in court. Whether you should is a different issue. The conventional wisdom is that an attorney will be able to do a better job and get a better outcome. Prosecutors and judges don�t like dealing with ProPers, unless you are simply pleading guilty, not defending the case. If serious about hiring counsel to help in this, and if this is in SoCal courts, feel free to contact me. I�ll be happy to help fight the criminal charges and get the best outcome possible, using whatever defenses there may be.
