Getting a DUI Lawyer or Not?

So you are enjoying a beautiful San Diego night out. You have done the same thing on many nights before, but tonight is different: you just got a DUI. Now you are wondering whether or not to find a DUI lawyer. You poll the entire San Diego area and everyone is telling you something new. Some people say that you don't need a DUI attorney, that they just take your money and leave you to suffer your DUI proceedings alone. Others swear by them, hugging their DUI lawyers outside the courthouse and hitting the San Diego scene at night (without your keys of course!)

The fact of the matter is, as with any legal issue, a DUI is nothing that you want to go through alone. Finding the right information is hard, and a lawyer will be your greatest resource. The amount of paperwork involved is also a considerable investment of time. If you don't want to be trekking around the San Diego metro area with proof of DUI to hand deliver to a clerk of court, a lawyer is a must.
