Can I get a DUI reduced without an attorney?
I was pulled over for speeding and did have alcohol in my system. After 5 FST's, the officer didn't believe I was capable of driving. Took me to the station and I blew a .08, which is the legal limit. Do I have any chance of getting this DUI reduced solo?

No. You MUST have a lawyer. You got a DWI, not a DUI.
