Make no mistake about it, a DUI arrest and conviction should not be taken lightly. The legal costs, penalties, and fines can easily run into the thousands of dollars, which is to say nothing of the possible criminal penalties and the far-reaching effect that a felony conviction can have on aspects of your life as varied as your interpersonal relationships and employment opportunities. An experienced DUI lawyer can help to ensure that you receive a fair trial and consideration of your case if you have been arrested and charged with DUI.

How We Can Help Your Case

In a sense, the personal judgment by your peers may begin as soon as people learn that you have been charged with DUI. Although the justice system heavily depends on the presumption of innocence, the intense emotional reaction that people have to the issue of driving under the influence can serve to completely erase that principle from a person's mind. Some examples of how an experienced DUI lawyer can help include:

• Determining whether your legal rights were respected in the arrest and any interrogation or sobriety tests
• Identifying lesser charges to which it might be reasonable to plead
• Arguing the facts of the case that are in the defendant's favor or which undermine claims made by the arresting officer
