DUI ATTORNEY AT LAW

DUI Defense Information for those looking for a DUI lawyer

(Welcome to DUI Mike.com General DUI Information)

When you’re searching for a DUI lawyer to help you with your DUI case, the amount of money you shell out is undoubtedly very important to you.  While it would be nice if there were one rate for each and every DUI lawyer, the inescapable truth is that each attorney will charge different fees for the same DUI charge.

Here are some of the things for you to consider as you interview potential DUI defenders:

            Who will handle your case?  Some attorney's that you meet with will explain their defense strategy for you but fail to mention that your specific case will most likely be handed off to an assistant or junior defense lawyer.  This should obviously factor in to your decision on whether or not to retain them.

            Schooling and Professional Associations.  You should check to see where the DUI lawyer went to undergraduate school as well as their law school.  In addition, are they a member of any of the professional organizations?  Are they a member of the NCADD?  Is their practice limited to DUI defense... or do they also handle other criminal matters?

            How complex is your case?  Another factor for you to consider is how difficult and complex your case may be.  Are there more factors in your case than most?  Does your case involve injury, death, or property damage?  These things will take a more in depth defense approach and will cost much more to defend. Seek detailed information about your specific state's DUI laws.  DUI laws vary from state to state.  One of the 'trend setters' in DUI law is the state of California.  Keep up to date on what DUI law in CA is doing as it will most likely affect your states specific DUI law.

The best approach for you to take is to interview several DUI attorneys and speak with them about the complexities of your case.  See which one is the most qualified and also which one you feel most comfortable with.  While price should be a concern for you, you'll want to weigh the benefits of paying for a highly qualified skilled attorney versus a lower priced one that may simply pass your case off to a junior lawyer who may or may not give you the best DUI defense.
