Is it necessary for a lawyer to be present for a first offense DUI.?

David William Olson
Answered by attorney David William Olson (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Law Offices of David W. Olson
Absolutely, you should consult with an experienced attorney, who would have many questions about the many issues inherent in any DUI matter.  Those questions would address details of the initial stop and detention, whether there was probable cause to justify the officer's request for a breath test, how it was requested, and many other issues.  It would be very unwise to receive the extremely damaging blemish of a DUI conviction on your record and to suffer its consequences without fully investigating and testing the prosecution's case.  Remember, you are presumed to be innocent, and although mere probable cause is required for an arrest, the much higher standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt is required for a conviction. Regarding your driver license, you do have both the ability to challenge the suspension and to seek a hardship permit.  There are time limitations, however, and these issues would also be addressed during the consultation that you should seek.

If you blow a 1.0, didn't completely fail the sobriety test, but when blood was taken it was lower then 0.08, can or should it be thrown out?

You cannot blow a 1.0, because that would mean that your blood was totally alcohol. IF you blew a .10, then you have a problem.

What are the rights of family members when member in custody is at hospital?

There is no good answer. You may want to complain to your local press (Newspaper/TV/Radio). Be prepared for a LARGE hospital bill. My experience has been when a person is in the hospital on a "Jail Hold" the Sheriff has not yet booked them to avoid the Sheriff being responsible for their bills. His personal physician may be granted access.
