How can I find a qualified Missouri DUI / DWI / drunk driving lawyer?
The best way to find a good Missouri DUI / DWI / drunk driving lawyer is by reputation. There are a few attorneys who have national reputations; they, of course, are expensive. Thus, the best approach is to ask other attorneys in the jurisdiction: Who is the best in the area? If you do not know any attorneys, go to the local courthouse and ask bailiffs, clerks and public defenders: Who would THEY go to if arrested for drunk driving? Contrary to popular belief, it is not a wise idea to obtain a referral from the local Bar association or referral service. There are rarely any qualifications required for an attorney to be on a referral list; he usually only has to ask to be placed on it. When you call, you are simply given the next name on that list. An excellent indication of quality and experience is membership in the National College for DUI Defense. Completion of that organization’s intensive three-day annual summer seminar as conducted at Harvard Law School, www.ncdd.com, is another
