Expert Dui Defense at a Practical Cost

If you’ve been charged with a DUI (driving under the influence with a blood alcohol content of .08 or more) in the state of California, you have only 10 days to request a hearing to prevent the suspension of your driver’s license. If you contact me immediately, I can work to prevent the DMV from suspending your license. With quick enough action, I can often get the DMV to set aside the automatic penalties it imposes on people charged with a DUI. However, you only have ten days to challenge the suspension of your driver’s license. The suspension period can cause a major disruption in your life. Often I can take enough information over the phone to prevent your license from being suspended, pending a hearing. However, you must contact me right away!
