What is a DUI, and Why Do You Need Legal Representation for DUI Charges?
Driving under the influence (DUI) is a serious charge. It can change your life in many ways. You might lose your license. You could face big fines and higher insurance rates.
​
There is also a chance of jail time. When you’re facing a DUI, you need a DUI attorney.
​
You need a dedicated DUI defense attorney like Lyliane Couture, who knows how to challenge evidence, navigate DOL hearings (Department of Licensing), and fight for the best possible outcome.
