  1. Contact your county court house, they will put you in contact with the public defenders office.  Be prepared to give wage statements and hopefully show that you can not afford a lawyer.


  2. The public defender's office of the county you reside in will have the forms for you to fill out to see if you qualify income wise.  The amount of maximum $ per month is REALLY low... normally you'll either be on SSI, welfare, homeless, incarcerated, or pretty d**n close to one of those to make the cutoff.
