We can work quickly to protect your rights and to begin preparing a strong legal defense.
If you registered over .08 on the DUI test, you must take action within 10 business days or your license will be suspended. If you registered under .15 on the DUI test, and this is your first DUI offense in the last five years, you may qualify for a special pleading through the court that may prevent your driving privileges from being suspended.
If you have had prior DUIs, you may qualify for special alternatives to jail time. We may be able to have you pardoned for prior offenses.
