It depends on a number of factors, including:

• Severity of the charges (including whether you have a prior DWI conviction)
• Your prior record
• Where you need to go for Court

At Smith Paulson O’Donnell & Erickson, PLC, we generally handle traffic/criminal cases on a flat fee basis, which includes all legal representation and trial, if necessary.  This flat fee for representation, together with a one-time, nominal expense fee, is paid at the time you hire us.
