Los Angeles Law Firm Highlights The Importance Of Hiring A DUI Defense Lawyer

March 31, 2019 – – California based Los Angeles DUI Lawyer recently issued a public advisory regarding the importance of hiring an experienced DUI defense lawyer to better plead a DUI case and get the best possible verdict from the court.

As noted on the company’s website, DUI laws in California consist of two distinct, but closely related, offenses under sections 253(1)(a) and 253(1)(b) of the criminal code. The first offense is impaired driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and the second is driving ‘over 80’ (in excess of 80mg of alcohol concentration per 100mL of blood).

A spokesperson from Los Angeles DUI Lawyer said, “California is known for its strict DUI laws and the state hands out a number of severe punishments to DUI offenders. That’s the reason why it is imperative to hire an experienced DUI attorney who is capable of building a great defense in court.” The spokesperson also explained that a DUI is a serious criminal offense which may result in jail time, license suspension, paying hefty fines, travel restrictions, and even a total loss of income.

Aside from driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and driving over 80 BAC, the Los Angeles DUI Lawyer also explained that refusing to undergo a breathalyzer or sobriety test in CA may also result in serious additional penalties, including travel restrictions, fines, and having a criminal record. They also stated that a refusal case limits a lawyer’s argument and defense since there is no data with which to challenge the accuracy of the readings. In addition, they mention that refusal to cooperate with authorities only results in the imposition of increased penalties. Furthermore, experts say that refusing to provide a specimen only aggravates a case, since prosecutors usually do not settle for a lesser offense when the alcohol concentration of the accused is unknown.

The firm also pointed out that those who seek probation for DUI in California must fully understand the terms and conditions of their sentencing. They explain that the California court demonstrates a wide range of penalties when it comes to probation, and these may include paying a fine between $390 – $1,000 depending on the county, license suspension from six months up to four years, spending a number of days in a county jail, attending a program known as DUI school, and more. They stated that failure to comply with the terms and conditions of a probation sentence allows the court to revoke the probation itself and sentence the accused to a jail term, depending on whether the underlying charge was a misdemeanor or a felony.

Furthermore, those looking for a team of professional and reliable DUI lawyers in Los Angeles and the surrounding areas may reach out to the Los Angeles DUI Lawyer by visiting their website or calling their office hotline. The firm noted that their team of DUI attorneys are capable of fighting for the full dismissal, removal, or reduction of any DUI related charges. As noted on their website, some of the plausible defense arguments that their team of lawyers utilize include challenging the legality of the DUI checkpoint stop, challenging the results of blood tests, asserting the failure of the arresting officer to read a suspected driver their Miranda Rights, questioning the field sobriety tests, citing Title 17 violations, showing to the court that there was a lack of probable cause for a DUI stop, and so on.

The firm’s spokesperson said, “Over the years, our team of expert lawyers have successfully defended clients on DUI charges by challenging the prosecution on highly technical grounds. Through our zealous advocacy, we have achieve consistently favorable results through detailed investigations and vigorous cross-examination of prosecution witnesses.” The spokesperson also went on to say that the firm’s comprehensive understanding of drunk driving laws in California gives their clients the opportunity to capitalize on their extensive experience and build a better defense. “We battle vigorously for all of our clients who have been charged with impaired driving, over 80 BAC, and multiple DUI offenses,” the spokesperson asserted.
