If pleading to the charge (continuance without a finding) is what makes sense for you, a DUI lawyer will make sure it gets done the right way. He will work with the DA to move up the court date and settle the matter quickly, and efficiently, with no mistakes.
For a first offense plea, in most cases they can get the minimum penalty allowed by law. They will walk you through all of the paperwork and procedures step by step, and explain everything to you along the way. You’ll have to the peace of mind to know that everything will be taken care of. And the lawyer will go with you to the Registry to get you a hardship license so you will still be able to drive for 12 hours a day during the period of your license suspension.
