    You are going to have to give us more information:
    • Where (state or country) are you?
    • What are you charged with?
    • Did the prosecutor make you an offer which your lawyer rejected?
    • If so, what explantion did your lawyer give you?


    I do not believe your attorney can refuse a deal which you want to make. Maybe there is something about it she won't approve, but if you and she cannot agree on this, you need a different attorney.

    An attorney is required to present any deal to their client. What makes you think your attorney rejected a deal? As AK said we need more details.

    I don't know, why not ask her? Maybe she feels there is not enough evidence to convict you in a trial. We don't know what evidence there is.
