I have bladder problem, only able to give one sample bac .21 will I get suspended license from DMV?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
Your bladder problem may not influence the authorities. With even a single sample showing such a high BAC, there's a good chance the prosecutor will want to proceed to charge you and get you convicted. As to DMV, they are entitled to suspend your driving privilege if any test shows a higher BAC than is permitted. Regardless of the legal outcome, there are other ways to enjoy life than drinking and then driving.

Do I really need to hire a attorney for a DUI?

Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
You don't have to hire an attorney for anything; however, a DUI carries with it a maximum penalty of 1 year in jail and a $5,000.00 fine, plus loss of license, installation of an interlock, increased insurance premiums, drug/alcohol counseling. If you want to roll the dice by representing yourself, you are certainly free to do so.

How do I get a public defender in New York with a dwi charge

Richard Francis Sweeney
Answered by attorney Richard Francis Sweeney (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Richard F. Sweeney, Attorney at Law
On the return date of the ticket, ask for a lawyer to be assigned to represent you. You will have to fill out a financial aid form. I know in the Yonkers City court, the criteria for getting an assigned attorney is that you make less than $400 per week, and don't own a car or home. Mention that you are supporting your child (if you are) and that should help. If you need a hardship hearing, that is, you need a car to drive, you must ask for the hearing before entering a plea of not guilty.
