FOR IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE PLEASE CALL      408-298-6204

DEFENSE OF DRUNK DRIVING CASES (DUI):

Drunk driving cases are complex. A DUI defendant has to defend a case not only in court, but also in the administrative forum of the Department of Motor Vehicles. Both entities can potentially affect the status of a DUI defendant’s driver license. Not every lawyer has the training necessary to effectively defend a drunk driving case. Experienced DUI lawyers undergo extensive training in all facets of DUI law, and understand all the intricacies involved in the effective defense of a DUI case. This office has such training and experience, having successfully defended DUI defendants throughout the Bay Area for many years.

VERY IMPORTANT !!!

To preserve your right to present a defense with the Department of Motor Vehicles, you MUST request a DMV hearing (commonly known as an “Admin Per Se” or “APS” hearing) within 10 days of arrest. If you request a DMV hearing within 10 days of arrest, the DMV will stay (delay) your license suspension pending the outcome of the hearing. If you retain my office prior to the 10 day deadline, we will request the hearing for you.
