If you are facing a DUI charge in Colorado, the last thing you need to do is ignore the situation. This is a very serious criminal offense. Even if you feel that you can handle this situation on your own, you still need to seek out professional legal advice. The laws regarding driving while under the influence offenses are very serious in Colorado and the penalties are harsh. In order to reduce the likelihood of you having to pay several hundred to thousands of dollars in fines, serving jail time, and blemishing your background record, you need to hire a DUI lawyer right away.
Choosing the right legal counsel can be a challenge, especially if you have not had the opportunity to do so before. To reduce the time it takes you to choose an attorney, look for one that has several years of experience winning DUI cases for their clients. Their level of experience will greatly improve your chances of receiving a favorable verdict. They will help you to overcome this situation. A good attorney will use the law, their skills, and other resources to help get your charges reduced or dismissed.
Cost is a factor that you should also consider when hiring a DUI lawyer. When you first meet with your defense attorney, remember to inquire about their fees. Find out when and how they expect to receive payment. Some professionals charge for their services by the hour, others require payment after they are finished representing you in court. Even if you do not have a lot of money, ask if there is a payment plan. Even if you choose to do a payment plan, you should still try to choose a professional whose services fall within your budget.
Law enforcement agencies everywhere frown upon DUI offenders, and the prosecutors will use their best tactics to secure a guilty verdict against you. Hire a DUI lawyer to protect your rights and keep you from being railroaded in court.
