Yes, he needs a lawyer. There are many things that go wrong in DUI investigations. Was the stop legal? Were the field sobriety tests done properly? Was the breath machine working? A full investigation needs to be completed. A lawyer will also gel your son navigate the MVD license suspension and everything else that may occur. You need t hire experienced an experienced DUI lawyer. He is facing up to 6 months in jail and $2500 in fines.
