I wouldn't knock the PDs office; they're always very experienced, and know the prosecutors. But the Constitution only guarantees you a free lawyer if you're facing possible jail time. I don't know how likely that is for a first offense DWI. I only know how it works in Michigan -- there, it would depend on BAC.
