DUI Defense

If you are arrested or cited for DUI or any alcohol-related case or a serious traffic violation, DON’T DELAY talking to an attorney. The DMV will suspend or revoke your license prior to your court date for up to three years or more without a hearing. You have no right to a public defender at the DMV.

DMV and court actions remain on your driving record up to 10 years and can have consequences including:

  • Thousands of dollars increase of insurance costs
  • Exclusion from current or future employment
  • License revocation, suspension, or restriction
  • Mandatory jail time
  • Drunk driving schools up to 30 months
  • Probation up to five years
  • Your records can never be cleared or expunged of DMV suspensions

YOU OR AN ATTORNEY MUST CONTACT DMV IN SACRAMENTO OR REDDING, NOT LOCALLY, OR YOU FORFEIT ANY MEANINGFUL CHANCE TO SAVE YOUR LICENSE.

Consequences for multiple offenders, refusals to take chemical test, or alcohol involving minors, including MIP, Fake ID, or Drugs, are even more severe.

You Have Many Rights And Defenses. Convictions, jail sentences, vehicle loss or impoundment, license revocations, suspensions or restriction, interlock devices, fines and even probation, CAN BE AVOIDED. Many cases result in acquittals or reduction. It is critical that you speak to an attorney immediately. If you have one… call him or her!
