I agree that you should retain counsel as soon as possible. There is an attorney referral service through the Bar Association of the District of Columbia that could assist you in finding an attorney.
Re: sobriety test/dui arrest
It's quite possible that the officer had valid probable cause to place you under arrest for DUI, based upon the facts which he observed in connection with your stopped vehicle, subsequent detention and arrest, including your alleged failure to "pass" the so-called field sobriety tests.
Better get a lawyer to represent you in this matter.
