Re: what are the Guidelines for retaining a DUI laywer?

You're the boss. If you've paid the attorney the retainer, it may take 6 weeks or so for the attorney to gather all information needed to further advise you. But if you haven't heard from your attorney, pick up the phone or shoot him/her an email and ask what's going on. The attorney or assistant should be able to tell you when your next court date is, what info they have and what info they might need from you.
