Your friend Rob got caught up in a very sticky situation because one night he was going to visit his girlfriend and when he arrived at her place she was outside arguing with this guy he didn't know.
His girlfriend told him that the guy was harassing her and she had first encountered him when she went to the corner bodega. The guy was standing around with some other guys and they spoke to her and she addressed them with a nice "hi," but apparently that wasn't good enough for this one guy (he was trying to impress his friends and she politely told him that she was involved with someone).
Rob tried his best to defuse the situation by explaining that the young lady was his girlfriend and he asked could you please just leave her alone. A civil conversation was not good enough for this guy and he pushed Rob (big mistake).
What the guy didn't know was that Rob "has hands," (he knows how to fight and is a very good boxer) in addition, Rob also studied various Martial arts.
After the guy pushed Rob, Rob stayed cool until the guy swung on him and then Rob had to retaliate.
Now, Rob was just defending his girlfriend and himself, but when the cops arrived and saw Rob standing over this guy who was laying there in a bloody mess, they had to arrest them both on Assault charges.
Because Rob is gainful employed he had to hire a private Attorney after his arraignment and he ended up hiring Ms. Wanda Figueroa, who initially requested a retainer of about $5,000, which Rob didn't really have at the time.
Rob didn't have too many options and Ms. Figueroa told him don't fret we can work out another method of payment.
