about 2500 to start for the misdemeanor drunk/profanity/assault whatever. that's to his lawyer just to work things out. possibly a small fine after that MAYBE but charged doesn't mean convicted. cops will throw every charge they can think of at you and then it's litigation and usually settles out to one charge that gets plead out. 2 visits in front of a judge max. fact.

the dui... that's more expensive. about 8-10 after you jump through all the hoops. from what i hear.
