How much does it cost to Hire an experienced Cicero DUI attorney?
 

Factors: You may be wondering how much a local Cicero DUI attorney costs. It can vary widely. However, there are two main factors that are ultimately determinative: (1) your particular circumstances (gravity of the charges, prior convictions, facts surrounding your arrest, etc.) and (2) your attorney’s billing structure. Helpful note: defense attorneys are almost always a wise investment; don’t be fooled, a drunk driving criminal record is far more expensive than the expense of any Cicero defense lawyer.
 

Fee Structure: In some cases, your attorney may take your case for a flat fee. Most attorneys charge an hourly rate ranging between $100 and $500 per hour. As you can see, rates can vary widely. However, an hourly rate does not always reveal whether the final bill will necessarily be higher by working with an attorney who charges a higher rate. Soon after your free initial consultation, but before you agree to hire your attorney, make sure you get some kind of estimate that will show you what your total bill is likely to be to pay for your defense. This will help you feel better about your representation, and it will put you and your DUI lawyer on the same page.
 

Your Case: If your Cicero DUI lawyer needs to spend additional time on your case, you are more likely to incur further legal expenses. This means that you will want to provide good, thoughtful information to your attorney without wasting his or her time (because you are paying for it). To best utilize your attorney’s time, always be prepared, be honest, and be attentive to your attorney’s request for your cooperation. Helpful hint: try to discuss your case as much as possible during the free initial consultation. You and your attorney are likely to be on the same page that way and you won’t have to pay for extra time to explain your case to your lawyer.
 

Fees versus Expenses: Please note that attorneys usually charge an additional fee for “expenses” for court costs and things like expert witnesses.
