You will definitely need to hire an attorney to have any chance of avoiding a sentence as a 3d time offender. I can't tell you that it's possible, but without knowing Connecticut's law or all the facts of your case, I can't tell you that it's impossible, either. And you will still need a lawyer to have the best chance of getting the lowest possible sentence, no matter what. One place to find a qualified attorney is our website, http://attorneypages.com
DWI is expensive. If you have to ask how much a DWI is going to cost, you can't afford it.
