A good doctor should never operate on herself, and a good lawyer should not represent himself in court. It makes even less sense for a non-doctor to operate on himself, and for a non-lawyer to represent herself in court.
If you are charged with impaired driving, you need a lawyer. There are no "ifs or buts." Whether you end up with a privately retained DUI attorney or a public defender, you will be much better off than if you try to represent yourself, as long as you know what to do, what to ask, how to behave, and what to expect of your DUI lawyer.
The articles in this section will give you a solid understanding of the nature of the attorney and clients roles in the DUI context. After you have reviewed these articles, you will be in the best possible position to:
Evaluate any potential lawyer you may hire;
Understand the fee structures that lawyers use;
Communicate with your lawyer about your case;
Resolve disputes and misunderstandings with your DWI lawyer;
Make sure you get the most out of the professional you chose to help you with your case.
In addition to the valuable DUI attorney information found in the articles in this section, we highly encourage you to review the state section that applies to your case, as it contains location-specific information that will help you. Your local state bar association can also be an excellent resource when it comes to dealing with your DUI lawyer.
