An arrest for a DUI in California will have a significant impact on a person's freedom, driving privileges and may result in a crime conviction. A DUI conviction also carries large fines and other criminal penalties, as well as damage to a person's reputation and opportunities for jobs.
There are many issues to be considered in DUI defense and legal representation should be obtained as soon as possible to ensure the highest possible chance of success in your defense. Law enforcement officials must take care to protect the legal rights of people suspected of and arrested for DUI offenses. If mistakes were made during the process of gathering evidence that impacted your arrest or conviction, it may be possible to have the charges reduced or dismissed.
