How to handle a first DUI with minor children in the vehicle.
Asked on Sep 27th, 2023 on Criminal Law - Pennsylvania
More details to this question:
My nephew was arrested for DUI in August 2023. He had his minor children with him. He has no prior arrests at all. He has a court appointed attorney. Apparently the attorney sent him a letter regarding all that he is being charged with. We aren’t sure whether to hire a private attorney or stay with the public defender. He has no money and no experience with a matter like this

He's going to need financial help to hire private counsel. I HIGHLY recommend hiring private counsel under these circumstances.
it's unclear where the case is charged. Call a few attorneys. Many of us offer free consultations. Good luck to him.
