What Happens at a DUI Pretrial Conference?

0

You and your attorney meet with the prosecutor and discuss your charges. The prosecutor (or District Attorney) will offer a deal to plead to the charges. See my DUI penalties page for details on what you could be facing. If your attorney can negotiate a deal that is fair and agreeable to you, then you might agree to plead guilty. If you want to fight the case, then your attorney will file motions for discovery, possibly set a date for a motion to suppress hearing, or determine other court dates as required. Also, if we are fighting the case, I will want to talk with you in detail about the facts of your case at this time. I will also visit the site of the spot where the police pulled you over. That way I can investigate any irregularities about the police procedures, and analyze exactly how we should argue that you are not guilty.
