What is the name of your state? Illinois
Friday night I left a bar. Drove for about a mile before i was pulled over. I thoght I was okay. "I'm sure every does." The officer asked for my license and insurance. I gave him my license but I didnt have my insurance in the car. Then he asked me to get out to take some tests. I said "sure, no problem." He first asked me to watch his fingure. I did that. Then he told me to balance on one foot and count to 30. after each number saying one thousand. He also said I lose my balance to lift my foot back up and continue where I left off. I did that. So I did what he had asked with confidence. I did lose my balance 4 times. I didnt fall over or nothing. And I contated at a consistant pace. Not to fast and not to slow. Then he asked me to take a breathalizer test. I took it. I honestly didnt think I was drunk. I guess I blew a .16. So he arrested me. I didnt resist. i didnt say anything all I did was go down to the station and kept my mouth shut until I was released. The only thing I said no to was when he asked me to take the breathalizer at the station.
Do I have a chance at beating this?
With the right lawyer can the case be dismissed?
Four years ago I got a zero tolerence conviction. I had alcohol on my breath and I was driving. Is this going to be a problem?
Can a Big Shot lawyer do anything different the a small time lawyer?
What would be a reasonable price to pay for a lawyer for a case like this?
Thanks again.
