Legal Question in DUI Law in Louisiana

Limataions on DWI laws

When I went to see my court appointed lawyer after getting out of jail for my third offense DWI he informed me that the state had not arrainged me in time. He said not to worry just sit back and wait for the court to send me a date and he would have it thrown out. A whole year went by before I had to go. By this time my lawyer did not even remember my name, and made a deal with the D.A. for me to plead guilty. I was threatened by the D.A. in front of my lawyer with prison time if I did not plead guilty. If I hire a lawyer and appeal the case, could I win?
