When you come to us for a free initial consultation, we will listen to your story and give you an honest assessment of your situation. We will explain your options and walk you through the drunk driving defense process.

When it comes to defending DUI charges, a thorough investigation is vitally important. Did the arresting officer have probable cause to pull you over? What did the officer say to you? The answers to these questions can make or break a DUI case. We will go through all of the paperwork associated with your case, speak with witnesses and put together an aggressive defense.

The recorded blood alcohol content (BAC) will play a large role in determining the consequences if you are convicted. Breath tests are not always accurate, but refusing to take one can lead to even worse consequences. We will consult experts if we think there are possible issues about the chemical tests you were given.
