Q: I’m 19 and was charged with DUI. Is it possible to get the charges lowered or maybe dropped in court?
A: There is no general answer to this question. Everyone in your position wants their charges lowered or dropped, but the district attorney doesn't just do that because the defendant wants it. Whether the DA does will depend on the facts of your case.
A: An experienced DUI Defense Attorney can give you a free consult. A DUI case is very fact specific to each case depending on what happened from the stop to the testing. Contact an attorney for a free consult over the phone or in person.
A: it depends on the facts, the courthouse and the judge and DA assigned to the case.
