if convicted of disorderly conduct in austin what will the punishment be?
Here are two examples in the “I can’t possibly answer that without talking to you” category. I see these questions (change the offenses to DWI, Shoplifting, Assault) all the time. I talked on the phone today for about ten minutes with the guy that googled the second question, and was able to tell him how he could handle the Class C disorderly conduct ticket without needing an attorney to represent him at all. But I wouldn’t have been able to give an exact answer, had I not spent a little time on the phone with him. I needed to know the facts, and what his goals and concerns were. Turned out in his case, he would probably work out a deferred disposition and a dismissal on his own. Also, he didn’t care about expunging the disorderly conduct, so that really meant he probably didn’t need a lawyer. By the way, the short answer to “Do I need a lawyer for a fill-in-the-blank Class C offense?” usually depends on whether you care about eventually seeking an expunction to wipe the arrest off you
