I am not an attorney who handles the occasional DUI and holds the client’s hand while they plead guilty. A DUI charge can be as embarrassing as it is problematic for your driving record, employment, and freedom. As a DUI attorney, I can assist you with professional, competent advice at reasonable rates. A DUI can carry jail time, fines, license suspensions, and high fees at the BMV. I assist clients through this difficult situation while focusing on obtaining the best possible result. I will take pride in finding the issue or issues in your case to get you the best possible result. Moreover, I realize the practical difficulties a DUI can bring such as an impounded car and personal property and the need for driving privileges. I will fight to have your property returned to you and your driving privileges granted as soon as possible.

A DUI can be challenged in many ways. The police officer must have a legitimate reason to pull you over. They must have just cause to ask you to submit to coordination tests. They must comply with national standards when conducting these field sobriety tests. They must have probable cause to make an arrest or issue a ticket. When giving a test to determine your blood alcohol level, whether it be a breath, urine, or blood test, there are many rules and regulations that must be followed. Failure to do any of these may mean that you are innocent of the DUI charge.

If you believe that you have a substance abuse problem or even if you are unsure, I will direct you to area counselors, agencies, driver intervention programs, and intensive outpatient and inpatient counseling centers that can evaluate your situation and treat you if necessary. Seeking treatment immediately may be the difference you need should you come in front of a Judge for sentencing on a DUI charge.
