DUI LICENSE SUSPENSION

Drunk driving is considered by many to be a very serious offense, with California having some of the harshest penalties for drunk driving it in the nation. In Los Angeles, even first offense DUI  drivers face possible jail time, community service,  probation, mandatory alcohol education program, high fines,  court fees, IID (ignition interlock device), and a driver’s license suspension.  If you or someone you know is arrested for driving under the influence, please contact our office to get immediate access to a skilled drunk driving attorney.

We pride ourselves to be one of the best DUI Defense firms in Los Angeles. Our goal is to get dismissals of all drunk driving charges in the Superior court and to win administrative per se DMV hearings held in one of the DMV Driver Safety offices.

DEFENDING YOUR CALIFORNIA DUI IN COURT AND AT THE DMV

A DMV hearing, if not requested within ten days of arrest will most likely cause an automatic driver’s license suspension or a complete revocation of the driving privilege.  After the arrest, a driver has only 10 days, to request an administrative per se DMV hearing.  Failure to request this hearing might not only cause a license suspension or revocation but it might also prejudice your case in court.  The reasons have to do with tactical approach our Los Angeles DUI firm takes while defending citizens against DUI charges.  Often, we are able to get helpful information from the arresting officers at the DMV hearing and then use that information to get dismissals of some or all criminal charges in court.  

Skilled and Affordable Los Angeles DUI Attorney will use the interplay between the DMV hearing and the Court hearing to his client’s advantage, often using one to settle the other.  Please do not ignore the DMV hearing and have our best DUI defense attorney help you fight the possible suspension or revocation of the driving privilege.

Los Angeles DUI AttorneyThe court and the DMV processes are very different from each other.  The DMV process allows a single employee of the DMV, not an attorney, to make a decision that will affect the accused throughout the rest of his or her life.  Moreover, the hearing can be based on a single 4-page document that will be used instead of testimony to take driver’s license away.  In comparison, the court procedure involves constitutional and statutory guarantees that are designed to protect the rights of the accused.  The court process involves several distinct stages that can be each utilized to fight the DUI charges.  Skilled DUI attorney can file motions to dismiss the DUI charges based on a violation of constitutional rights, negotiate with the prosecutor for a dismissal of charges or for a more lenient sentence, or to convince the jury that you are innocent of the accusations.

We are skilled in winning administrative per se DMV hearings (APS DMV Hearing) and the criminal court cases.  We will provide quality representation to show the judge, the prosecutor and the jury the factors in mitigation, any failures to follow crucial procedure by police, violation of your constitutional rights, and any incorrect science that is the basis of so many DUI prosecutions.  Attorneys in our firm are skilled in a scientific approach to Los Angeles DUI defense, where we can effectively show that the prosecution is not relying on the proper scientific process to prove their DUI case against you.  

We utilize experts that can convincingly testify that your blood alcohol level was below the legal alcohol limit or that the level can not be determined with any reliable accuracy.  We are skilled in cross-examining the government experts and showing that the field sobriety tests, used by police to arrest drivers suspected of a DUI, are extremely unreliable and have a high error rate.  

Defending DUI cases is an uphill battle.  That’s why you need to hire one of the best Los Angeles DUI Attorney to help you fight your case.   DUI defense is unique because it involves a combination of legal and scientific issues.  DUI defense is also unique because evidence of impairment is usually circumstantial and based on some arguably objective signs of intoxication and a blood alcohol level.  The jury needs an aggressive and likable attorney who can overcome their bias against a blood alcohol level that is higher than the legal limit.  It takes skills and experience of Defending DUI cases to poke holes in what seems like a rock-solid case presented by supposedly unbiased government witnesses from the crime labs and the police departments.

Our approach to DUI defense is to attack the legality of the traffic stop questing if there is a vehicle code violation or a valid DUI checkpoint stop.  Next, we attack the legality of the DUI arrest because only four of several DUI field sobriety tests are scientifically tested.  Once we attack the field sobriety test by questioning the training and the observation of the police officer every step of the way, we move to the scientific aspect of DUI defense and focus our attention on the criminalist.  For example, CHP recognizes that a high percentage of individuals will display symptoms of impairment without being impaired on a horizontal gaze nystagmus test.  We scrutinize in detail every field sobriety test and point out that they are not reliable.

We question the reliability of the preliminary alcohol screening test and accuracy of blood alcohol level.  For example, many machines can malfunction or the blood can ferment and produce alcohol, causing an increase in the blood alcohol level.

COSTS OF LOS ANGELES DUI ATTORNEY

The price of hiring a professional DUI defense attorney to help you fight your case in the Superior Court and/or at the Administrative Per se hearing varies between practitioners.  It is not uncommon to hear that some lawyers will charge as little as $500.00 to represent defendants in court.  On the other hand, it is also possible to hire an attorney who values his services extremely high and to pay $10,000.00 or more for even the pretrial representation.

Typically, it is not advisable to hire attorneys on the low end of the price range mostly because they will be either inexperience or not motivated to litigate the criminal case to get the best possible result for his or her clients.   On the other hand, on the high end of the prices ranges, the attorney might be expensive simply because he or she is passing the high overhead costs to the clients.

Because of our ability to keep overhead costs low, Los Angeles DUI Attorney is able to pass the savings to our clients and to offer quality representation at an affordable price.  We pride ourselves on doing the very best we can to help our clients avoid criminal convictions or, when that is not feasible, to negotiate the very best plea bargaining deal possible.  Not only we are experts in Los Angeles DUI defense, but we also do it at a very competitive price.  We will consider the unique financial situation of our potential clients to afford a private attorney and will give substantial discounts based on the ability to pay.  We do accept all forms of payment and offer great payment plans with nominal down payments.

 IS IT POSSIBLE TO WIN A DUI CASE?

DUI cases can be won even when police test blood alcohol level and it is above the legal limit.  In our practice, Los Angeles DUI Attorney are able to achieve not only dismissals of all charges and acquittals in trial courts, but also to negotiate dispositions that will save our clients their driving privileges, their freedoms, and their jobs.  While we negotiate criminal case dispositions, we aim to negotiate results with the least criminal record, while being extremely informative to our clients and aggressive in the representation.

Most DUI cases are very fact-specific and involve a multitude of clues and field sobriety tests that the arresting police officers requested suspects to do.  The police can, for example, stop a driver suspected of a DUI without a good reason and might lie in the police report to help their case.  We are able to fight these cases through motions to disclose previous instances of lying or through motions challenging a legality of the stop.  In other cases, the police might wrongfully decide that you were the driver of a vehicle and is, therefore, guilty of a DUI.

We are often able to show the prosecutor that they do not have sufficient evidence to proceed to trial and get a dismissal of DUI charges based on insufficient evidence.  Lastly, the police will often use unreliable scientific methods and techniques to measure the blood alcohol level of drivers suspected of drunk driving in Los Angeles.

Experienced Los Angeles DUI Attorney can often point out to the prosecutors and judges the unreliability of the scientific method used and to show flaws in math used by the government’s experts in determining blood alcohol level at the time of driving.  In short, we aggressively fight judges and prosecutors every step of the way in getting the best deals for our clients.
