a good lawyer has a good chance of knowing your judge and might be able to start you taking steps now to avoid worse **** later

safe driving course, drug and alcohol awareness - I don’t know but yeah you need a lawyer

So you also don't know if I'll end up paying $10,000 worth of court costs either then.

You should count on having to pay the standard fine.

And if that's maybe a couple thousand dollars I'm totally okay with that. 10 fucking thousand dollars will drive me to kill myself.

I don’t know **** man

$10,000 is the total expense everyone cites in Florida

It includes your insurance going through the roof.

DUI’s have to be disclosed on many kinds of job applications here for life. All state and county jobs. It’s really hard to get a teaching job even if your DUI was years ago, for example.

The standard fine isn’t going to be $10,000. That’s the whole enchilada.

otherwise looking at the numbers for Texas, best case is a fine up to 2k and 90 days without a license

If I have to just pay 2 grand and lose my license for that long, that is so fucking okay with me. First offense, I got in trouble when I was 18 for paraphernalia but as far as a real first offense, this is it. I'm counting my blessings and hoping for the best.
