Question: I`ve been charged for child cruelty in georgia state what could happen to me if i dont have an attorney?

Answer: If you decide to resolve the case without an attorney, you WILL be going into custody. IF you do not go into custody the day of the guilty plea (because you agree to probation), you will go to jail on a probation violation. Your money will either come up short, because you didn`t know a $ 1000 turns into $ 1320 with surcharges, or you really didn`t believe that you could not leave a message to change your probation date, and your probation officer never called you back, but just took a warrant. Or you did not realize that you could not leave the state of Georgia without your probation officer`s permission, even for an emergency death in the family. You don`t appreciate what an attorney can do, so you definitely don`t understand problems that an experienced attorney can help you avoid.
