Santa Barbara DUI Attorney
Aggressive Defense Against DUI Charges
A person charged with DUI is facing serious consequences if they are convicted. Depending on the circumstances of the case and the driver's DUI history, a conviction can result in the loss of driving privileges, heavy fines and jail time.
Given that so much is at stake in a DUI case, it is important to hire a Santa Barbara criminal defense attorney experienced in DUI cases. A skilled lawyer can competently guide you through your legal proceedings, including your DMV hearing. You must schedule a DMV hearing within 10 days of your arrest or your license will be automatically suspended, and possibly revoked. DMV hearings can be extremely technical, and the chances of a person winning without legal help are very low. Even the documentation that is given to a person who is arrested for DUI can be confusing.
