The best advice an attorney can give you at this stage is to get some free consultations from criminal defense attorneys in your area. Find out how much it is likely to cost for the attorneys, and choose one that you know you can trust. Your freedom is at stake, depending upon how vigorously the state prosecutes the case. Public defenders are usually very good attorneys, but you have no choice at all in who represents you.
