DUI Lawyer Cost

For a first DUI defense, a private criminal defense attorney will only charge a few thousand dollars. The average Washington attorney will charge $2500 for most misdemeanor offenses, including DUI. If you have a long criminal history or multiple charges, the cost of a DUI could rise. For example, a felony charge could cost you close to $5000, or even $10,000, depending on the severity of the offense.
