DRUNK DRIVING ATTORNEYS DUI LAWYERS

DUI Attorney in Los Angeles

If you are looking for a DUI attorney in Los Angeles, contact the Law offices of Takakjian, Sowers & Sitkoff LLP. Since 1989, this renowned law firm has been providing expert legal counsel to clients who so are facing criminal charges in Southern California. With over 60 offices throughout Southern California and affordable rates, excellent legal counsel has never been more accessible.

If you or someone you know has been charged with DUI in L.A., Long Beach, Torrance, Pasadena, Glendale or elsewhere in Southern California, it is important to obtain the services of a DUI attorney in Los Angeles County as soon as possible. This enables the attorney to begin working right away on building a defense against what are very serious charges. California law is becoming increasingly less tolerant of DUI offenders and imposing harsher penalties for those that are found guilty. Depending on the nature of the arrest and whether an accident is involved or whether somebody was injured, the penalties could range from license suspension to stiff fines to prison time.

From the moment you are arrested, the clock starts ticking. While the temporary license that you were issued at the time of their arrest is valid for 30 days, you have only 10 days to file for hearing with the DMV. This hearing is not used to determine your guilt or innocence but instead serves as an opportunity for you and your DUI attorney in Los Angeles to dispute any of the facts surrounding your arrest. Your attorney can request records pertaining to the maintenance and calibration of any testing equipment, and can question the reason that you were pulled over, whether the officer had just cause to do so, and whether you were lawfully arrested. While this hearing is independent of any court hearings, prevailing at the DMV hearing can often lead to dismissal of any court action.

Because time is of the essence it is important that you contact your DUI attorney in Los Angeles right away. Your attorney can file for and attend the hearing on your behalf and present a strong case in your defense. Because so many factors affect a peace officer's perception of whether or not you are under the influence, it is important to inform your attorney of any circumstances that may have given the officer the wrong impression. These include medical conditions, physical disabilities, and any medications you may be taking.

Visit www.attorney-criminal-dui.com to find out more about what you should do if you are arrested. You'll also find helpful information that any driver in California should be aware of. If you have already been charged, contact us right away to get in touch with our firm and arrange a consultation. The sooner you retain legal counsel, the better your chances of prevailing during this difficult time.
