I can give you this advice because NO ONE WAS THERE TO GIVE ME MINE. First: the attorney: decide, Trial or Plea. Second: If you're Guilty, you only have 90 days (usually) until the sentencing hearing, and a lot you need to prepare for:The Presentence Interview You have a lot of documents to get copies ofcharacter reference letters (~7)They should know you (or be a current or former employer) and be aware of your legal chargesregarding community service things or events that you have helped them withYour "Personal Narrative" (Most CRITICAL), to include in your Presentence Interview (also CRITICAL), or unfortunately you were sentenced without any preparation (or are already inside) - we can work with that too.
