Do You Need A Lawyer
Do you need a lawyer if you’ve been arrested for driving under the influence or driving while intoxicated? Yes!
If you’ve been arrested, you should always consult a lawyer, even if you believe you are likely guilty. The law guarantees a presumption of innocence until you are convicted, which affords you the right to defend yourself. Issues that a lawyer may be able to help you with include:
- How strong is the evidence against you?
- Have the police overstepped their bounds in stopping, testing, arresting, and charging you?
- Were your rights violated during the testing?
And most importantly, a good DUI lawyer will help minimize the costs of a DUI, including minimizing cash penalities, jailtime, and community service.
In short: if you’ve been arrested, you need a DUI lawyer!
