The make and model of the car on the citation is generally not going to be an issue. As for any other issues that the officer did or did not do that you think he should have, hire an attorney. Unless you have extensive knowledge of DUI and police procedure, then you shouldn't even try to tell the court what the officer did or did not do correctly.

For a start, yes. But, DUI is a very specialized area of law and the best defense is done by attorneys that practice solely DUI law. However, this can be expensive. if money is a restricting factor, than the public defender is a good second choice because at least he or she will know the prosecutors, the court, and the avenues to get a better deal if there is no avenue to get the matter dropped. Who knows, if the case is bad enough, they may offer a traffic violation in lieu of the DUI.
