My 17 yr. old daughter was caught shoplifting. Value of mdse on her was $12, but her friend had shoplifted mdse valued at $74. Because they were together, and value totaled >$50, my daughter was arrested and taken to jail. We are not looking to get her "off", as she admitted to the shoplifting, but should we hire a lawyer?

My response:

Yeah, I think it would be prudent.
