Good morning. I recently got an OPEN INTOX IN PUBLIC PLACE. I was drinking in a park . The cops gave me a ticket and then took the breath test where I blew 2 x the limit. I have a totally clean record with no prior alcohol offense
They drove me home. I pleaded guilty with out a lawyer. I was sentenced to:
1. 6 months probation
2. 10 weeks of alcohol insight class
3 Random drug testing 1x per week...where I call in every single day.
4. Total fines, costs,probation fees of 500. bucks.
Question is IF I had retained the lawyer for the $750 he wanted would any of the above be improved for the better?
What could the lawyer really have done for me?
Sincerely, Drunk Criminal in the Park
