More details to this question:
I was arrested for driving under the influence a few weeks back. My friends and family think that hiring a lawyer is a waste of money since I will probably be found guilty. Is it worth it for me to hire an attorney?

There are many issues that an experienced attorney will be looking at, including whether the police had probable cause to stop you,; your performance on the field sobriety tests; whether you took a breath or blood test; whether the testing to conformed to the California Code of Regulations guidelines; your blood-alcohol content; etc. Only you can decide whether hiring an attorney is worth the expense.

It depends on the facts of your case. You should talk to an attorney about this and not your cheap daniel who won't have a criminal conviction if you just plead guilty.
