You need an attorney.

You would not be in a pickle if you had

Promptly resolved your alcohol charge.

AND

Most importantly - If you had not driven with a suspended licence.

There is really no getting around that.

Getting a lawyer MIGHT help - but there are statutory penalties for driving suspended and I just don't see how you will waive them.

Not knowing of a suspension (ignorance) is not a defense.

Nor is justification (friend needed you).

Get a lawyer and figure it out, and have him with you in 2011.
