As scary as it sounds, it’s a reality that anyone could be put in a situation where they may not be prepared for. I mean, it seems simple enough to follow the rules and stay on the right side of the law, but there are people who seem to run out of luck or strike out when it comes to life. When it comes down to it, not everyone can have everything good in their lives. Some, if not most, will always have something bad to go through.
I have a friend who made an impulsive decision to explore Vallejo. There was a lot of planning involved and he seemed to have everything in order. There was an itinerary for museum visits and a whole two days in an amusement park. There is a ferry ride that people seem to be crazy about, so he took that as well. Unfortunately for my friend, he did not follow the simple rule of not traveling under the influence of alcohol.
I guess he had so much fun that he missed this important detail. That, or he just did not want to waste any part of the vacation program and insisted on the ferry ride even if he was not fit to do so. Either way, his bad decision-making caused him so many problems that day.
It started off with the dreaded ferry ride where he knocked over a thing or two and knocked out another tourist. He got arrested and having no family to call, he was in desperate need of help. To this day, I still do not understand how he couldn’t have thought of calling me, but that’s all in the past. Anyway, he was desperate and started looking on the internet and found “Criminal defense attorney Vallejo”.
Honestly, the story drastically changes after he finds this lawyer on the internet. For someone who was without any support from family and friends in a place he was not familiar with, not to mention being in serious trouble while at it, he seemed calm when he told me about what happened to him. Apparently, his situation was handled with utmost professionalism and care, and honestly, I was envious of how much he looked relieved after his little adventure on the ferry.
After speaking to his lawyer, he was immediately released from detention. All his belongings were given back to him and his lawyer made sure that he was not harmed in any way. He learned a lot about his legal rights and he couldn’t be more thankful. He summarizes the experience as his second lease on life and he has never felt more grateful.
Not knowing everything about a place should not stop anyone from enjoying traveling. If you are like my friend and you are prone to getting in trouble, it is important to note that besides trying to keep out of trouble, you can also find people who are more than willing to help you with your legal problems.
