How To Find a Lawyer
In general, finding a good DUI lawyer is much the same as finding a good divorce attorney, or finding a good tax attorney. You should find someone who specializes in the field: DUI lawyers should have experience in many fields including traffic laws, civil rights, and due process.
The best way to find a DUI lawyer is to ask people you trust for referrals to lawyers who have successfully handled cases like your own. If your family and friends do not have experience in this realm, your existing attorney may also have recommendations.
In the event that you can not find a lawyer through direct referrals, don’t be afraid to use the internet. There are dozens of websites with long listings of lawyers - these can be helpful, but should be approached with caution. Many of these listing services are paid rather than based on reputation, so attempting to find references (either by asking your new attorney or asking his peers) may allow you separate the great from the mediocre.
