I recieved a DUI in the state of iowa. I was driving home when I went into a ditch, rolled, and totaled my car. I did not injure anyone or damage any property except my own. The cops came and I blew a 0.12. I went to jail until I blew zeros. I then hired a lawyer who I think is hurting me more than helping me. I have not had to go to court at all. This is my first ever DUI. MY lawyer says I have to spend some time in jail and pay lots of fines. He called me today and said I have to have my GUILTY PLEA in by Tuesday morning (Its Sunday now) or I will have to go to court. The only reason i hired him was to keep me out of jail.There was a pre trial that he went too where it was determined I couldnt get out of jail/fines or get a defered judgement.Isnt that harsh for a first offense?What can I do if my plea has to be in so soon?I **** my lawyer cause he treats me so bad personally.What are my options?What should I plea?Too late to switch lawyers?Can I report my bad lawyer to anyone?
