With a wealth of experience spanning over twenty-five years, I have successfully handled thousands of driving under the influence (DUI) cases in the Glendale courthouse, instilling confidence in my clients and achieving favorable outcomes.
Glendale is part of the Los Angeles court system and, like most of the courts in Los Angeles County, has its way of dispensing justice in DUI cases.
In my opinion, your best strategy is to hire an attorney who has been down the road you are about to travel and had success. There are no “cookie-cutter” solutions when it comes to DUI cases.
They spin on their facts, and the prosecutor and judge evaluate several factors when deciding their position on any given case.
Many of these factors can be grey areas and need to be explained to the powers that be by a seasoned, savvy DUI defense attorney who is on your side and can fight for your rights!
Drunk Driving Factors
Some of the factors that the prosecutor and judge will consider in making their decision are your blood alcohol level (the higher it is, the harsher it will be), how you were driving at the time of your arrest (if you were going fast or driving recklessly, then they will harshly punish you), your criminal and driving record, and precisely what happened in your case.
If someone was injured during your DUI arrest, the police will consider this in how they deal with you. If, on the other hand, you were simply arrested for a minor traffic offense and were cooperative with the police, then you stand the best chance of coming out on the other end with the least amount of damage possible.
Rest assured, a significant part of the DUI defense is damage control and finding issues with the prosecutor's case. I am committed to identifying these problems and using them to your advantage.
Glendale, California DUI Cases
One of the most significant factors that the police, prosecutors, and judges are looking at in a DUI case is how dangerous you were to the community during your DUI arrest.
They see it as part of their job to protect the public and punish those who break the law and jeopardize public safety.
If it can be successfully argued that you were not a danger to the public at large during your DUI arrest, then many of the consequences associated with DUI cases in Los Angeles can be avoided.
Once again, each case spins on its' facts, and I encourage you to come in to meet with us so we can evaluate your case and begin the process of resolving it and putting the court system behind you!
The Glendale Police Department is well-known for its arrest record on driving under the influence (DUI) charges. You may have been caught in a DUI checkpoint drunk driving arrest program.
A DUI conviction in California can result in expensive fines, jail time, and a suspended driver's license. You could also be ordered to perform community service and work with convicts to clean up the highways. Any drunk driving charges need to be addressed immediately by an experienced DUI attorney because you only have ten days from the date of your arrest to request a DMV hearing. However, with the right legal representation, it's possible to mitigate these consequences and achieve a more favorable outcome.
If you do not schedule a hearing, your California driver's license will be automatically suspended. In California, only the Department of Motor Vehicles has the legal right to suspend or revoke your driver's license. This DMV hearing is an integral part of your DUI arrest, as it determines the status of your driving privileges, and a skilled attorney must handle it to ensure the best possible outcome.
