Years before I went to law school, I found myself in a similar situation. Fortunately, I pleaded not guilty ... and defended myself (after I found out my lawyer was an alcoholic and had missed my court dates and forgotten to tell me about them). When I won the trial, it planted the seed in me, and I started thinking about going to law school. (I was working as a courier then, because I couldn't get a job to match my degrees).
