If you want to fight your charge completely, you should have an attorney willing to go to trial for you. Otherwise, these factors may result in the prosecution offering you a better plea deal. Again, you should consult an attorney.

It depends on the evidence. Your son should consult an attorney who can review the discovery from the prosecution to see what evidence they currently have.

He may be offered a lesser charge than DUI, but it will probably not be dismissed completely without taking it to trial or the evidence being suppressed by your attorney before trial.
