DUI cases can be expensive and the ramifications can be long lasting. A DUI attorney may not always be required in these types of cases, but can certainly offer some needed help throughout the process. You may not need a lawyer if you are planning to plead guilty of your first offense, for example, but you do if you want help with getting a plea deal. DUI attorneys are well-versed in the plea bargaining process and can often get charges reduced or thrown out, depending upon the case. Be careful though, as typically a plea deal requires that you maintain a clean record for a determined amount of time. Make another mistake, and you’ll face even stiffer charges and severe penalties the next time a crime is committed.
Most DUI cases in Colorado aren’t cut and dry, as there are often questions about the validity of things like field sobriety and breathalyzer test results. Hiring a lawyer who understands the ins and outs of DUI charges can help you find weak areas in the other side’s case, making it more likely that you’ll have your charges reduced or dropped. When you are looking at the potential for huge fines, losing your license and even jail time, it makes sense to hire a DUI attorney for help. It’s the only way to protect your rights, your freedom and your reputation, no matter what your case entails.
While it’s true that DUI cases can drag on for months without resolution, an experienced attorney can help move the process along as quickly as possible so that you don’t have to worry about what will happen. You can rest assured that everything will be turned in on time and will include all the details that the courts are asking for. Be prepared by maintaining your own files about the case before you even speak to an attorney. That way, you’ll have a good jump on your case and can ensure that nothing is missed.
