    I got a few charges and need knowledge for comfort.
    Long story short I got into a highspeed chase on my bike and have the following charges:
    Willful wreckless
    Fleeing to avoid arrest
    100+ in a 30
    Improper passing
    Passing up the middle.
    I have a lawyer but have not talked to him.
    Can someone tell me with a good lawyer what I will be looking at? I am 17 and the County Attorney wants to get me as an adult but I turn 18 in November. Its hard to sleep not knowing what I'm going to get.

    Even as a first offense I think you will find it difficult not getting some fairly severe punishment even if they eliminate one or more of the charges.

    Best case a few years probation and several thousand dollars in fines most likely.

    Possible 3 to 6 months in jail and then probation, If this resulted in a high speed chase, often the DA will be pushed by the police to go for a max. since high speed chases endanger lives.
