I’d try Legal Aid, Lawyer’s referral from the phone book or you migh find a link on
but any decent DUI atty is going to want to be paid; consider making a payment plan with a good local one
If it is a misdemeanor, you aren’t entitled to a public defender. Likely, there is not a program that covers criminal cases, so you probably cannot find a pro bono attorney for this charge. Call around to the attorneys that handle traffic/DUI cases, find the cheapest one, and retain him/her. They will manage to continue your case until you have paid the attorney fee.
Next time, don’t drive under the influence.

That is why public defenders exhist.. Ask who ever posted bail for you the pay for the attorney. I don’t think they have computers in jail???
