Hello. I am not sure how or why it is that you apparently feel compelled or forced to testify absent a subpoena.  Generally, witnesses ought to confer privately with an attorney. Seek counsel from an attorney licensed in your state. Some attorneys are available seven days for emergency legal needs. Many attorneys will speak initially at no charge. Then, if legal work is performed, some attorneys will provide a reduced fee for financial hardship. Some attorneys may also assist you in a limited scope manner to conserve legal costs. All the best.
