DUI/DWI lawyer at Rothstein Law PLLC
Were you arrested for DUI? If so, .21 is extraordinarily high and you should hope to avoid jail. I suggest you retain a good criminal defense lawyer who knows how to handle a DUI case. I am a former federal and State prosecutor and now handle these cases on the defense side.

What are my penalties for evading arrest detention of motor vehicle first offense?

Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
What are my penalties?? If charged as a misdemeanor, up to a year in jail. If a felony, from one to four years, depending upon the specific charges filed. What will the outcome ?? The honest answer is that no attorney can predict the outcome, nor even give an intelligent opinion, without reviewing and knowing all the charges, evidence, police reports, expected testimony, priors history, etc. When charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained be used against you, can you be convicted, and what can you do? Raise all appropriate defenses with whatever witnesses, evidence and sympathies are available for legal arguments, for evidence suppression or other motions, or for trial. If you don't know how to represent yourself effectively against an experienced prosecutor intending to convict, then hire an attorney who does, who will try to get a dismissal, charge reduction, diversion, program, or other decent outcome through motions, plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate.

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.
