More details to this question:
I was recently stopped by police driving home. I was drinking a bit at a bar close to home when a police officer flashes his lights for me to pull over. My place was about two blocks down so I decided to just pull in to my drive way instead of the street which came out to be the wrong thing to do so. I went to jail and was charged with no license and fleeing police officer but I didn’t get DWI. My bond was $500 I had my parents bail me out and I have to go to court next month. Should I get an attorney? This is my first offense and I don’t have no criminal record whatsoever this would be my first.

Yes. There are many questions for you. Do you have a license, but it was not with you? Is your license suspended? Have you ever had a license? Were you charge with fleeing ( a misdemeanor) or evading arrest in a motor vehicle ( a felony)? Get a local lawyer who handles these kinds of cases.
