Will I lose my license?

Depends on state, prior record, and BAC. A DMV hearing can save your license — you usually have only 7–10 days to request one.

Can DUI charges be reduced?

Often yes — to reckless driving, 'wet reckless,' or dismissed if the stop, testing, or arrest was defective.

How much does a DUI lawyer cost?

First-time DUI: typically $2,500–$7,500 flat. Repeat or with injury: substantially more.
