Do I Need a Lawyer?
Reasons to Hire a DUI Lawyer in a Drunk Driving Charge
"Look. I am a certified DUI specialist who has handled thousands of these cases. But to tell the truth, if I were charged with DUI, I probably wouldn't represent myself. I would want that extra security that comes from knowing I have someone else who knows what they are doing on my side to protect me. Even I would hire a DUI specialist." — Paul E. Lewis
Can I represent myself in a drunk driving case?
Tennessee state law allows anyone facing a DUI/drunk driving charge to represent themselves in court. Some people are afraid of the costs of hiring a DUI lawyer or believe that having experienced representation will probably make no difference to the outcome of their case.
Why should I hire a DUI specialist?
The fact is that a certified DUI specialist like attorney Paul E. Lewis can usually help you save a significant amount of money in fines, not to mention helping you keep your driving privileges so that you can continue to go to work to support yourself and your family. Money is not the only cost of a DUI. A conviction can affect many aspects of your future.
When should I consult an attorney?
Now. Having an experienced attorney and certified DUI expert on your side as soon as possible after your arrest can help you understand the situation and make the right choices. But put your checkbook or credit card away: Mr. Lewis generally recommends that his clients wait until the blood test comes back before spending any money to hire a DUI lawyer. It is important to have as much evidence as possible to get a clear picture of all the legal options available to minimize the consequences of a drunk driving arrest.
