Do I really need to hire a attorney for a DUI?

Gregory Casale
Answered by attorney Gregory Casale (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Gregory Casale, Attorney at Law
The chances of having your DUI charges dropped without an attorney are between slim and none. You should absolutely have an attorney. If you can not afford one, by the court's standard, they will appoint a lawyer for you for a minimal fee. It is typically anywhere from $150 - to $500. More likely, it is the lower end and they will give you some time to pay it. Do not go it alone.

Is there any statute of limitations for a DUI or can they wait 4 years to charge you with a DUI?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
They have six years to charge you from the date of the incident. The date that the incident occurs is what governs the time the clock starts ticking. They probably filed charges against you shortly after it happened in 2009. Just because you managed to stay under the radar for a while will not change the validity of the charge provided they filed charges in time. Of course, time can have some advantages such as the losing or misplacing of evidence, officers no longer there to testify, etc. Seek counsel from an attorney before proceeding.

Will having drugs in my car count as a DUI?

Answered by attorney Eric E Rothstein (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Rothstein Law PLLC
You will be charged with Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the 7th Degree for the Molly. Did you do a blood or urine test? If yes and it shows drugs you can be charged with DUI under VTL 1192.4. Even if you didn't take a test you can still be charged for DUI depending on the Police Officer's observations of you. I suggest you hire a good criminal defense lawyer.
