All of them told me basically that they wanted to fully fight the case when all I was trying to do was accept harsher sentencinging in return to keep my class A and class c driver license in order to keep my job and employee housing in luo of accepting harsher sentencing which from what I researched is known as the Hellman dollar Plea Deal. Thelander law told me that with my BAC content charge it was more than likely to lose and to accept my fate when all the others told me they would take my money and basically still lose. My next court date is March 29th and I am representing myself and I will let you all know how the outcome is.- Michael Buczyna 2023
