What type of charges am I facing if this is my first DUI EVER and I was ticketed with DUI in the Slightest Degree?

You were tested for DUI because you probably had alcohol on your breath. Unless the cop can articulate why he did a DUI investigation, such detention is illegal and the evidence gathered can be suppressed, leading to a dismissal. All of which means: either hire a lawyer or ask the court to appoint one.

How long should my license be suspended for a refusal to blow (breathalyzer)?

If this is a pre-arrest field test, you can refuse. There is no requirement to submit to this test IF you are over 21. If this is the actual breathalyzer, the DMV can certainly suspend your license for the statutory minimum of one (1) year for your first DUI and two (2) years for your second DUI. This is true whether or not you were convicted of DUI. It is also possible that the DMV can refuse to ever issue you a license again. When you receive a license, you promise to provide blood, urine or breath upon demand; this is known as implied consent. Failure to comply can lead to serious penalties.

Will having a DUI on my record impact my child custody case?

It's possible. If you have not done so already, I suggest that you contact an experienced family law attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.
