DUI There's No Alternative

DUI Lawyer Los Angeles

Representation for Drunk Driving Charges in Los Angeles County

In 2011, California joined other states in enacting Admin Per Se. This law allows officers to seize the license of people suspected of driving under the influence (DUI) and submit the license to the Department of Motor Vehicles or DMV. This makes being arrested or held under the suspicion of DUI a case that would require an immediate need for lawyer that can help you get out of the mess with an unrevoked license. DUI can be a complicated case so a Los Angeles DUI attorney who knows the law inside out and has a vast experience in DUI defense is necessary.

What Happens After I Get Cited for a DUI Charge in Los Angeles, CA?

The answer is, you should decide on contacting a Los Angeles DUI lawyer to guide you in the assessment of your case, discussing the process you need to go through and plan the possible defenses to your case. It is crucial to do this as soon as possible because you would only have 10 days after you were arrested to request a DMV hearing in order to prevent suspension or revocation of your license. A loss of license can completely change your life so we would want to prevent that from happening.

Apart from a DMV hearing, you should also prepare for your arraignment. An arraignment is your first appearance in court wherein you will be informed of the charges filed against you. You will then have to enter a plea of either “guilty,” “no contest” or “not guilty.” Entering a not guilty plea will result to a trial. The court will decide the date and until then, you and your DUI defense attorney should present a defense to prove that you are indeed not guilty of the charge.

If you are found guilty of DUI, the consequences can be very bad for you. You will be slapped with hefty fines, mandatory DUI seminars, suspension of license and you may even face a jail time. Even misdemeanor DUI charges can still cost you a large amount of money for fines. Though first time offenders don’t usually face jail time, having a DUI offense in your record is a serious matter as it can be present in your record for at least 10 years thus, making it even more important to prevent such offense from getting into your record.

Contact a Los Angeles DUI attorney as soon as you get a DUI charge for a consultation. A prepared, well-thought, aggressive and affordable DUI defense can make a huge difference in your DUI case.

    "An Attorney I Could Trust"
    I called to inquire about a case I was facing, this was one of the many attorneys I was speaking with during a free consult about my next steps. The future was looking more and more alarming as the implications of what I was facing were becoming clear. Halfway through explaining my situation, he interrupted me and asked some basic information, put me on hold for one second and came back telling me he had called around and found out that my case was not proceeding. Four other attorneys I had spoken to did not do this, and in fact had used scare tactics and worst case scenarios to try and hard sell me into signing a retainer. (unfortunately, the evening before I HAD with another attorney signed a retainer but thats for another review) Although I did not need to retain the services of this office, I believe that single action speaks worlds about the integrity, helpfulness, intelligence and capabilities of this office. In a world that is so difficult for the uninitiated, such as the legal system, it seems people are taking advantage of you at every turn. It was a welcome and uplifting experience to see the opposite of that with this law office and I am so grateful I was able to find them and know I could call them if anything were to ever happen to me later in life and know I could trust this team.
