Legal Question in DUI Law in Missouri

I recently got a dwi. I didn't think and had my son in the vehicle(child endangerment) and speeding. Will I lose my son? And how much is this going to cost me in fines? Do I need a lawyer and how do I get one without any money?

As you may face sugnificant jail time if convicted,you may qualify for an appointed attorney. That is if your assetsa are as limited as you say. Either way, you should definately have an attorney assist you with these charges. The state may seek to remove yoru child from your custody, but you may be able to defend yourself form all the charges. You (and yoru attorney ) will need to act quickly to maintain your driving priviledges.

Good luck
