A Firm Grasp of the Law and DUI Defense Strategies that Work

If you are charged with first-offense DUI, we can help you understand potential consequences and evaluate your legal options. We know exactly what may be on the line for you — from your driving privileges and reputation to your financial future and many freedoms. If you are viewed as a prior offender or face a felony DUI charge, you will be putting a trial-proven, aggressive criminal defense attorney to work for you.

It is our job to be thorough and resourceful — investigating every aspect of your case that may enable us to target a dismissal or acquittal at trial. We look hard at:

  • Police reports, witness accounts and other resources that may indicate a problem with your DUI arrest
  • Whether your traffic stop was justified under the law and whether any search-and-seizure laws were violated
  • Any potential problems with evidence in your case, including blood alcohol content (BAC) results obtained with a Breathalyzer or blood or urine test
