A person should always get a Lawyer for a DUI. Is it pending or complete?

Your friend should absolutely get a lawyer. If this is her first offense, it is quite likely that this matter can be resolved without a conviction. But it won't be inexpensive with all the court costs, etc., involved. Where is the case pending??

There is no doubt that your friend needs an attorney and some of the previous responses have been very good. I have handled a large number of DWI's in various counties throughout Illinois, so either you or your friend can call me for a consultation at no cost.
