Even though Franklin wasn't an attorney, he told his son that he learned the hard way when as a young man he received a "driving under the influence" arrest, represented himself in court, paid thirty-five hundred dollars in fines and penalties, and served one month in the city jail. As he told his son, after he got released from jail, he found out from an attorney friend that had he hired a "driving under the influence" attorney in the first place, he more likely than not would have had his fines and penalties considerably reduced and he may have never served any time in the county jail.
When Lawrence heard this he knew he needed more facts about DUIs and so he asked his father for more information about what a "driving under the influence" attorney can do in a "driving under the influence" arrest. His dad then stated the following: "Many if not most DUI attorneys will do everything they can to help you when it comes to your DUI arrest. To prevent you from losing your driver's license and to keep your record 'clean,' DUI lawyers start by believing that you shouldn't have been arrested. With this clearly in their minds, they will 'fight' for you and for your legal rights."
When Lawrence listened to his dad explain this, it was as if his eyes were opened for the first time about the critical nature of hiring a "drunk driving" attorney. Near the end of their discussion, Lawrence mentioned that he was starting to grasp the significance of "driving under the influence" laws and what "drunk driving" attorneys" can do for a person who has received a "drunk driving" arrest.
After getting "schooled" about DUI arrests, the role of "drunk driving" attorneys, and the fact that he didn't have to agree to take any field sobriety tests at the time of his arrest, Lawrence made up his mind that he would definitely hire a "driving under the influence" attorney to represent him in the local court. Something else, however, happened after he had talked to his father. Lawrence at last began to comprehend the serious nature of "driving under the influence" arrests and, as a consequence, he decided that from this moment forward, he would always drink responsibly so that he would never again have to experience another "driving under the influence" arrest.
His dad smiled at Lawrence and mentioned the following: "son, it took me until I was fifty years old to realize what you just told me. I am very proud of you." This did wonders for his self worth and so Lawrence thanked his dad and then said, "if I can always drink responsibly, I will never have to hire a DWI lawyer again!"
Regrettably, there was one issue that neither Lawrence nor his father considered, namely, if Lawrence is manifesting any alcohol abuse signs or perhaps if he is displaying any of the typical signs of alcoholism. Indeed, if Lawrence is exhibiting any alcohol signs that indicate alcohol abuse or alcohol addiction, he will probably need alcohol rehabilitation.
In all honesty, Lawrence may be required by the court to get treatment for his hazardous and excessive drinking. The good news, conversely, is that whatever it takes to address his excessive and careless drinking, it appears that Lawrence will be motivated to do the "correct" thing.
