I received my first DUI and received my notice to appear. Would it be worth getting a lawyer? Or should I just go in and pay whatever fine they give me?
Wow, okay, I said ‘first’ because the fines, probation and suspension are drastically different for first offenders, not because I was planning on getting more.
Second, I don’t need AA so get off your pedestal, k? thanks.
Third, no, I didn’t want your sympathy and I’m not crying, simply asking a question

I received a DWI courtesy of Carrolton, TX about two months ago. I know i was dumb so please refrain from getting on the soap box. The paperwork the cop filled out says arrested in Denton County, but i was bailed in Dallas County and my court doc says Dallas. So i figure it’s Dallas itll be filed in. My question is that Ive already filed for ALR hearing and still no answer. I keep going to court for the criminal part and theyve yet to even file it. My attorney says that it or even the bond have yet to show up on my record. I am not trying to fall through the cracks and have this forgotten, believe me Im not that lucky, I just want this to be over. I want to move on with my life. Im going to law school next year and i dont wanna deal with this, I want to start my probation and be free in 2010 . Anyone else out there who have had DWI in dallas or denton please respond, and anyone who is MADD or wants to lecture just save it, my dad is a 20yr AA counseler and alcoholic.
