Have you been arrested for DUI or other drunk driving related offense? While most people believe that DUI cases are simple matters, they truly are not, and can lead to devastating penalties to include jail time. With organizations like MADD and local governments aggressively pursuing DUI offenders, you may endure severe consequences if you do not take action to protect your legal rights. Because DUI charges are some of the most controversial and debated criminal charges, you would be surprised to know that there are significant possibly available to you provided you have a competent DUI defense attorney on your side.
It is often said by people with little information about the subject, that DUI offenses are "unwinnable" or are nearly impossible to defend. This could not be further from the truth. With biased police officers offering their assessment of field sobriety tests to the pseudo science of blood alcohol calculators, there may be a very strong case available for the defense of your DUI arrest. Keep in mind as well that you will need to not only fight the criminal charges against you, but the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) case as well. These cases are entirely separate, but equally important. The DMV case is established to determine the reliability of the officers' need to pull you over or stop you while driving. If enough evidence is there to support such a case, you may have your drivers' license suspended while the criminal case proceeds. If you are exonerated of your DUI charges in court, the DMV will reissue your drivers' license status as it had before the arrest.
Regardless of the specific circumstances of your DUI arrest, you will need to immediately consult with a DUI attorney with the experience and understanding of your local courts' judges and prosecutors. At the same time, he/she will need to arrange for a DMV hearing to help save your driving privilege. In some states (including California), you only have 10 days to schedule this hearing, so you must act fast. Additionally, charges will proceed quickly and you must have an experienced DUI lawyer to help you sort out the facts of the police report and to mount a defense that will save you from the penalties intended by the state.
