Question: I got a DUI last night, should I get a court appointed lawyer and plead not guilty or own up to my mistake and plead guilty?

Answer: In Hawaii, you should not assume that just because you were arrested that the government can prove their case. Hire an aggressive attorney who won’t roll over. If you are committed to not pleading guilty and making the government prove their case, hire an attorney who will fight for you.
