Best Answer

Some private attorneys may occasionally take a criminal case if they are interested in it, but it's very rare and they don't advertise. If you can show that you can't afford to hire an attorney, and you are facing possible jail or prison time, you are entitled to the services of a Public Defender. You can contact your local Public Defender office on your own, but if you've already been arrested you can tell the court you want a Public Defender at your first court hearing (arraignment). The Public Defender office will ask you for details about your income to see if you qualify.

If you have too much income to qualify for a Public Defender, you might be able to find a private attorney who will do a payment plan. The easiest way to find an attorney is through a lawyer referral service. These are run by local bar associations and many provide a free or low-cost initial consultation with an attorney.

You can find links to your local Public Defender office and lawyer referral service at the source below. Just scroll down the page to the Santa Clara County section.

If the recipient of the check or district attorney or attorney general in that locality presses charges, you may be arrested and face criminal penalties if convicted. Stopping payment on a check is not always a criminal offense. State laws determine when such action constitutes a violation of the criminal statutes.
