How do I find a pro bono attorney for DUI charges in Phoenix?
I need to find a pro bono attorney for a DUI charge. I cannot afford to get an attorney an dont really want to use a public defender.

I’d try Legal Aid, Lawyer’s referral from the phone book or you migh find a link on http://www.probono.net
but any decent DUI atty is going to want to be paid; consider making a payment plan with a good local one

If it is a misdemeanor, you aren’t entitled to a public defender. Likely, there is not a program that covers criminal cases, so you probably cannot find a pro bono attorney for this charge. Call around to the attorneys that handle traffic/DUI cases, find the cheapest one, and retain him/her. They will manage to continue your case until you have paid the attorney fee.
Next time, don’t drive under the influence.
