Someone I know got caught with vicodin while driving in Washington...?

He got caught with vicodin and I want to know if he really needs to get an attorney to represent him if all he wants to ask for is work-release or can he just ask the judge on his own? He wasnt allowed a court represented attorney because of how much he makes, but an attorney we asked for advice wants 2500 down- and my friend doesnt just have that kind of money to pull out his butt. So, can he represent himself and ask for workrelease or does he need to cough up 2500 for a attorney?

Answers:
Needs to hire his own attorney as he not only is facing jail time, but possibly a felony charge which could affect his ability to get a job for at least the next 10 years, if not the rest of his life.


That's going to be a felony charge.

He needs an attorney.
