On an initial DUI can the policeman take my license?
Attorney Franks: Yes. They will certainly give you a paper that claims you have 1 month to visit trial or your license will certainly be put on hold. What that implies is you have one month to get a DUI attorney and also set it for trial. In the event the court can not hear your case within one month your lawyer can motion to have the period extended up until the day the court can hear your trial.
Can I represent myself throughout the process?
Attorney Franks: I constantly tell everybody I can replace the engine in my vehicle but Im most likely going to mess it up since I'm not a mechanic. You can speak for on your own however ought you? No you need not. I have seen even more individuals founded guilty in trial trying to represent themselves and also its not because they are stupid. The fact is they do not recognize the regulation and they don't recognize the regulations of evidence. As a DUI attorney I stay on par with these points and leverage it for my clients to get them the most effective feasible outcome. While you deserve to represent yourself its one of those situations where frequently you're better off and its less expensive to proceed and work with a lawyer that knows what they are carrying out in the DUI world.
