If there is a warrant for your arrest, you should turn yourself into the court, not the police. Do not go to court without an attorney.  By turning yourself in on the warrant with an attorney, you are less like to face any significant bail. If the facts of the case involve serious injury or you have a long default history on prior cases you will need an attorney to argue bail for you. Understand that just because the victim does not wish to prsue the case, it does not mean that the prosecutor will drop the case. You will need an attorney to assist you in getting the case dismissed. For further information on warrants and domestic violence see the blog section of my website listed below.
