Many times people who have been arrested for DUI are worried about the cost to hire a DUI defense attorney. They wonder if they can afford an attorney, and if hiring one is worth the cost.
Being convicted of DUI can cost you over $10,000 in fines, court costs, counseling and increased insurance rates. This figure does not include the possible lost income you could face from job loss now or in the future due to the publicly available criminal record, or the inconvenience of having a suspended driver's license.
There are several factors that will go into determing the exact cost a lawyer charges for a DUI case:
- Whether the charge is a misdemeanor or a felony
- The location of the Court where the case is pending
- The experience, training and background of the attorney
- The specific circumstances of the DUI arrest
