If you have been arrested for a DUI/DWI matter, you have a lot at stake. It could cost you your driver's license, and a conviction could result in a jail sentence, fines, increased insurance rates and a criminal record that can follow you for the rest of your life. Likewise, a traffic violation -- from a speeding ticket or a charge of reckless driving -- can carry significant effects, especially if you have a prior record.
These charges are serious. Having the assistance of an experienced defense attorney on your side can make all the difference.

Upon an arrest for DUI/DWI, your license may be automatically suspended by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) for 30 days. You may be able to get a limited driving privilege to drive for work purposes after the first 10 days of your suspension. However, you must act quickly. Please contact our office today to find out how to obtain your limited driving privilege.
If you are convicted of DUI/DWI, your license will be automatically suspended for one year. Again, it may be possible to get a limited driving privilege for work, depending on the circumstances of your case and your prior record. If you are convicted of DUI/DWI, you could go to jail for up to two years, and you will face a substantial jump in your car insurance rates.
