On a first offense DUI, you may be sentenced to serve up to six months in jail and to pay a fine between $390 and $1000. Your vehicle may be impounded and subject to storage fees. Your license may be suspended for six months and you will be required to complete a DUI offender program before it can be reinstated.

Our goal is to minimize the negative consequences to you no matter how serious the charges. Depending on the circumstances of your case, that may mean keeping you out of jail, or getting a felony DUI reduced to a misdemeanor charge. We will also work to help you obtain a provisional drivers' license.

We will examine the police report and the facts of the case. Did the police have probable cause to make the traffic stop? Were they properly trained in administering the blood alcohol/Breathalyzer test? Had the Breathalyzer unit been properly maintained and calibrated? We will ask the hard questions and explore all legal options.
