Don’t try to Represent Yourself in Court

Don’t be tempted to represent yourself in court as a way to save money. Unless you just so happen to be an experienced DUI attorney well-versed in local DUI laws and court proceedings, then 99.9 percent of the time it’s going to be a lose-lose situation that will end up costing you money as well as potentially your liberty, job, driver’s license, and reputation. Without an experienced DUI attorney by your side, your chances of getting your charges reduced or dismissed will be highly unlikely. Further, a prosecutor won’t be inclined to give you a favorable plea bargain because he or she will see you as an easy conviction at trial. And while representing yourself at your criminal trial in front of a jury, it will be very difficult to obtain a “not guilty” verdict as you likely do not have the legal wherewithal to convince the jury that there’s sufficient reasonable doubt about your guilt.

As the often-quoted saying by poet Samuel Johnson goes, “A man who represents himself in court has a fool for a client.” Representing yourself in court for your DUI charge is foolish because the stakes are way too high; after all, a DUI conviction in Florida can have life-altering ramifications that will stay with you for the rest of your life including possible jail time, a permanent criminal record, losing your driver’s license, possibly losing your job, thousands of dollars in fines, fees, and court costs, and the emotional toll of getting dragged through the court of public opinion and potentially ruining your reputation in the community and among your family, friends, and colleagues.
