So here's the situation. I've lived in Denver,CO for the past two years and decided to take a week long vacation in my home state of Indiana to pick up a vehicle I purchased and planned on heading back there on the 13th of November.
I ran into a bit of a sang with the Elkhart Police depart which ended up with me being charged with an OUI.
The events leading up to the arrest are a bit hazzy but from what I recalled the arresting officier notated that my speed was a little high and I know for a fact he followed me four blocks from the establishment that I was partaking in beverages at.
Anyways, he pulled me over not even a hairs breadth from my destination and put me through the motions of a field sobriety test.  I turned down the initial breathalyzer before I was cuffed and hauled off to the station were another was administered.  I blew a .11 on the breathalyzer and was booked in the the country jail soon after for about 24 hours before my bail was posted and my courteous parents bailed me out. 

My charges were OUI and OUI: Endangerment.  Now this is my very first even encounter with any law establishment of any kind.  
My question for you astute folks with this particular how I should go about dealing with my hearing tomorrow at 8:30 at the Magistrate's office and if it is wise at all to procure the services with a lawyer with the proceedings to come.

If this information helps:  I'm 23, M, No prior convictions of any sort and what the possible outcome/aftermath I should be anticipate. I have zero knowledge about any of the court proceedings and am in all honesty about ready to pull my hair about the whole ordeal

So, any input/advice/direction/prior knowledge would be very greatful and I thank you for your time to ready this.
