1. Hodges, Safa: Being charged with any criminal offense is a frightening experience. You need to know your rights under the law and act to protect them immediately - before memories fade, evidence is lost, or witnesses disappear. Don't wait to get help from a lawyer. The longer your attorney has before trial, (whether it is this law firm, or another) the better and stronger your defense can be. Perhaps more than any other area of law, experience is crucial for an attorney representing individuals in criminal cases. That is because the penalties for incompetence in a criminal defense case may be particularly devastating to the client.
2. Simons, Barry: "DUI" stands for Driving under the Influence and occurs when someone is operating, or is in actual physical control, of a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or other controlled substance to the extent that their mental faculties are impaired and/or their blood alcohol content (BAC) is above the legal limit. Even for a first offense, penalties can include license suspension, substantial fines, community service, mandatory attendance at a state or DMV approved alcohol program, mandatory overnight incarceration and the required installation (at the offender's expense) of a car ignition locking device. In addition, a DUI conviction stays on a DMV record for several years, it typically results in higher insurance premiums, and an offender may become ineligible for credit. Plus, a DUI could also jeopardize your employment opportunities. However, if someone was injured as a result of the drunken driving accident, it is possible the defendant will be charged with a felony (and if the victim dies, the driver may be charged with vehicular manslaughter). Further, a DUI conviction will likely be raised to a felony if it is the driver's fourth DUI offense or the driver has had a prior felony DUI offense within 10 years of the new charge.
3. Diane Bass: A defendant's probation may be revoked by a trial judge if the defendant violates any of the terms or conditions of his or her probation. Only the trial judge that granted probation to the defendant has authority to revoke the defendant's probation.
4. Elekes Law Office: In 1966, the United States Supreme Court issued its famous "Miranda" ruling regarding self-incriminating statements. The Miranda decision held that when law enforcement takes someone into custody and questions him, they must advise the person regarding his rights, i.e., "Miranda" warnings ("you have the right to remain silent..." etc.). More specifically, the court stated that if the police failed to give such warnings to a detained individual and a confession was given, there was a constitutional violation against the individual's Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. As a result, the police would not be allowed to use the confession in court against that individual.
5. Barry T. Simons: In order to successfully Defend DUI charges,an Attorney must not only understand the Laws of the State, but must also understand both the Laws of Nature and the Laws of Human Nature. The Laws of the State are designed to facilitate convictions and enhance punishments for persons accused of driving while under the influence of alcohol. They disregard The Laws of Nature - SCIENCE - and assume facts to be true for ALL people. We believe that these cases can be successfully defended by understanding both SCIENCE and LAW and by vigorously challanging the State's evidence at every juncture.

1. Heneghan, Martin: Punishment is imposed following a defendant's conviction for any crime. Such punishment is usually imposed by the judge in the trial court, although in certain cases in some jurisdictions the amount of punishment is recommended by or actually set by a jury. In all cases, the amount of punishment that may be imposed is limited by the sentencing statute associated with the crime for which the defendant has been convicted.
2. Jackson & Wilson: Being Charged or Convicted of Committing a Crime Is a Life Changing Event Simply being charged with a serious crime can result in the loss of your job in addition to finger pointing and ridicule by your family, friends and other people in the community. Being convicted of a crime can result in additional serious long-term consequences such as jail, fines and felony "strikes". What To Do During An Investigation and Before Arrest- Call Your Attorney! From the very moment you believe you are under criminal investigation, for any reason, retain experienced legal counsel immediately. The best time to start protecting your legal rights is during the early stages of a criminal investigation. Not only will your lawyer have the best opportunity to protect your constitutional rights, but early involvement in a case will give your lawyer the very best opportunity to help avoid criminal files being brought against you in the first place. In many cases, you lawyer may be able to avoid having any charges filed or the charges reduced before filing. If you are approached in person or over the telephone by investigating police officers for questioning, it is in your best interest to remain silent and immediately ask for your lawyer to be present. The fact of the matter is that any questions the officers would like you to answer can just as easily be answered with your attorney present. Why do we caution you on this issue? Because most investigators are skillfully trained and have years of experience interviewing suspects and witnesses. Trying to hold your own with these experts is similar to putting a baby bunny rabbit in to a cage with a hungry full grown mountain lion. The results will not be pretty!
3. David Salvin: Being arrested for driving under the influence or ÔDUIŐ can be an upsetting, embarrassing, and an emotionally difficult experience. People feel like criminals, outlaws. The truth of the matter is, that driving with alcohol in your system is not against the law in California. An absolutely true statement. How can this be? The law in California is that you may not drive while physically under the influence of alcohol to the point it impairs your ability to drive a car, and you may not drive if your blood alcohol level (Blood alcohol content or BAC) is greater than .08%. Unlike just about every other crime on the books, DUI requires no intent to commit the crime. Most people who commit the crime of driving under the influence have absolutely no intent to do so, and donŐt even know when they are doing it. A crime you can commit without even knowing it? Yes. You donŐt have a personal blood alcohol monitor with you at all times do you? There is basically no way to know if you are over the legal limit. With recent changes in the law, the BAC limit has been lowered to the point that many people can reach the limit with only a drink or two - long before they begin to feel the effects of alcohol in their system. That is why DUI affects every walk of life. All kinds of people get DUI's: Doctors, lawyers, actors, politicians - everyone. You donŐt need to feel like a criminal, and you can get through your first DUI. HereŐs how: 1. Seek advice from an attorney immediately. (Did you know that you have only ten (10) days from the date of your arrest to save your drivers license?) 2. Work closely with your attorney to keep your driving privileges. (Did you know that the vast a majority of drivers need only lose their license for one month on a first time DUI?) 3. Follow instructions. If you take the proper steps, and keep all of your appointments, resolving your first DUI can be no worse than getting a speeding ticket in terms of your time and worry level. DUI - Frequently asked questions * What will happen to me? What are the penalties for DUI? For California DUI penalties and new DUI laws for 2005, click here. * Will I be put in jail? Generally, If you have a qualified attorney, not only will you not likely be put in jail, you should have to visit the courthouse no more than one time at most. Your attorney handles the tough parts. * Can I handle my DUI myself? Yes. You can also build your own house, and repair your own car. ItŐs just a matter of how much skill and knowledge you possess. While walking in and pleading guilty may produce perfectly acceptable results, it may also cost you dearly. * If I want to fight it, will I have to go through a trial? Not always. Most of the time, a full blown trial will cost you more than the fines and fees will cost. While very few attorneys are willing to admit it to you, trial is very expensive and always a gamble. On a first time DUI, negotiations between your attorney, the judge, and the District Attorney often produce better results without the expense, worry, and embarrassment of a public trial.

1. Brenner Law Firm: Vehicular Manslaughter Vehicular manslaughter may be charged when a driver causes an accident (either by violating a traffic law or by exercising negligence or "gross negligence") and the accident causes the death of another person. Under California law, three primary vehicular manslaughter offenses are most often charged: If the vehicular manslaughter does not involve gross negligence, the prosecutor may charge it as a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the circumstances. Vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence can only be charged as a felony. Gross negligence is defined as driving without caution and without concern for the safety of others. It means a high level of recklessness. Vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence may not be based merely upon driving under the influence of alcohol. Other facts must be present. Although DUI is often present in vehicular manslaughter cases and can make the charge and the penalties more severe, the offense can still be charged even if the driver was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol. All that is required is that the driver either committed a traffic violation or exercises negligence (ordinary or gross negligence), and this violation or negligence is what caused the fatal accident. If the offense is a misdemeanor the sentence is a misdemeanor and the maximum custody is one year in the county jail. If felony DUI vehicular manslaughter (but without gross negligence) is found, the sentence can be up to four years in state prison. If felony DUI vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence is found, the court can impose up to 10 years state prison. Drivers license suspensions may also be imposed.
2. Kovack, Wolfgang: Take Action! Know Your Rights! Protect Your Future! Driving Under the Influence In the state of California, IT IS ILLEGAL for a person to drive while impaired by either drugs and/or alcohol. If a person drives while impaired, or with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher, he/she can be charged with driving under the influence (DUI) by California law enforcement. Many people make the mistake of taking their DUI charges too lightly. If a person is convicted of DUI, he/she faces serious legal consequences including: 1. Jail Time 2. Monetary Fines 3. Legal Fees 4. Community Service 5. DUI School 6. Probation 7. Loss of his/her driving privileges for a period of time. The legal consequences for DUI are extremely harsh. For this reason, a person should never make light of their DUI charges, or choose to represent them self. I have the knowledge and experience that is crucial in your defense. If you have been charged with a DUI, you need dependable legal representation! California DMV Hearing As soon as you are arrested for a DUI, your driverŐs license will be immediately confiscated by law enforcement officials. At this time, you will be issued a temporary permit that is good for 30 days. The only way to get your driving privileges reinstated is through a hearing with the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). You have ten days from the date of your initial arrest to schedule this DMV hearing. Failure to do so will result in the automatic suspension of your driverŐs license for up to four months. At the hearing, a representative from the DMV will act as both the judge and the prosecutor in order to determine whether you are guilty of drunk driving. The DMV representative examines any data, information, or evidence gathered by law enforcement surrounding your arrest. At this time, you and your attorney will also have the opportunity to present your defense. After the representative has evaluated all the facts, testimony, and evidence, he/she she will make a ruling to either sustain the suspension on your driving privileges, or have them reinstated. Refusals Anyone arrested for driving under the influence MUST submit to a chemical test (blood, breath, or urine) to determine the blood alcohol concentration. Failure to complete or refusal to take the test will result in suspension of the driver's license for one year. Protect Your Driving Privilege If you have been arrested on DUI charges, it is important to hire an experienced DUI defense attorney to represent you in court, as well as at the DMV hearing. Many individuals make the mistake of representing themselves. This is NEVER advisable. Without the assistance of a skilled attorney, you are putting your driving privileges in jeopardy and decreasing your chances of success.

Call our office immediately for information about your legal needs. Question: What do police officers look for when searching for drunk drivers on the highways? Answer: The following is a list of symptoms in descending order of probability that the person observed is driving while intoxicated. The list is based upon research conducted by the National Highway Traffic Administration: Ą Turning with a wide radius Ą Straddling center of lane marker Ą "Appearing to be drunk" Ą Almost striking object or vehicle Ą Weaving Ą Driving on other than designated highway Ą Swerving Ą Speed more than 10 mph below limit Ą Stopping without cause in traffic lane Ą Following too closely Ą Drifting Ą Tires on center or lane marker Ą Braking erratically Ą Driving into opposing or crossing traffic Ą Signaling inconsistent with driving actions Ą Slow response to traffic signals Ą Stopping inappropriately (other than in lane) Ą Turning abruptly or illegally Ą Accelerating or decelerating rapidly Ą Headlights off Speeding, incidentally, is not a symptom of DUI; because of quicker judgment and reflexes, it may indicate sobriety. Question: If I'm stopped by a police officer and he asks me if I've been drinking, what should I say? Answer: You are not required to answer potentially incriminating questions. A polite "I would like to speak with an attorney before I answer any questions" is a good reply. On the other hand, saying that you had one or two beers is not incriminating: it is not sufficient to cause intoxication - and it may explain the odor of alcohol on the breath. Question: Do I have a right to an attorney when I'm stopped by an officer and asked to take a field sobriety test? Answer: The law on this varies from state to state. As a general rule, however, there is no right to an attorney until you have submitted to (or refused) blood, breath or urine testing. In some states, there is a right to consult with counsel upon being arrested or before deciding whether to submit to chemical testing. Of course, this does not mean that you cannot ask for one. Question: What is the officer looking for during the initial detention at the scene? Answer: The traditional symptoms of intoxication taught at the police academies are: Ą Ą Flushed face Ą Red, watery, glassy and/or bloodshot eyes Ą Odor of alcohol on breath Ą Slurred speech Ą Fumbling with wallet trying to get license Ą Failure to comprehend the officer's questions Ą Staggering when exiting vehicle Ą Swaying/instability on feet Ą Leaning on car for support Ą Combative, argumentative, jovial or other "inappropriate" attitude Ą Soiled, rumpled, disorderly clothing Ą Stumbling while walking Ą Disorientation as to time and place Ą Inability to follow directions Question: What should I do if I'm asked to take field sobriety tests? Answer: There are a wide range of field sobriety tests (FSTs), including heel-to-toe, finger-to-nose, one-leg stand, horizontal gaze nystagmus, alphabet recitation, modified position of attention (Rhomberg), fingers-to-thumb, hand pat, etc. Most officers will use a set battery of three to five such tests. Unlike the chemical test, where refusal to submit may have serious consequences, you are not legally required to take any FSTs. The reality is that officers have usually made up their minds to arrest when they give the FSTs; the tests are simply additional evidence which the suspect inevitably "fails". Thus, in most cases a polite refusal may be appropriate. Recently, many states have begun following the federally-approved (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) "standardized" field sobriety tests. These consist of a battery of three tests: Ą Heel-to-Toe (also referred to as "walk-and-turn") Ą One-Leg Stand Ą Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus All other field sobriety tests are disapproved. And unlike non-standardized tests, in which the officer subjectively decides whether the suspect passes or fails, the SFSTs are scored objectively - that is, a numerical score is assigned according to specific errors, or "clues".
5. Michael Bruggeman: Along with an individual's physical makeup, the following factors may also tend to create questions regarding a test's reliability: Equipment Operation Error: Defense attorneys often point to the officer's failure to follow the instruction manual of the sobriety testing machine, such as the Breathalyzer apparatus. Mouth and Air Contamination: Substances found in the suspect's mouth at the time of a sobriety analysis can cause in inaccurate readout, including tobacco, lip balm, mints, and recent dental work. In a breath test, test results may also be altered if the defendant burps or otherwise slightly regurgitates anything. For this reason, officers often wait 20 minutes prior to administering certain sobriety tests in order to ensure that such substances are not found in the mouth. However, it may be questionable that officers are sufficiently observant to notice if a defendant has burped or not, thus creating a need to wait an additional 20 minutes. In addition, airborne substances at the time of reading, including hairspray and nail polish, can affect the accuracy of the reading. Radio Frequency Interference: Just as aircraft or hospital instruments can be affected by cell phones, certain models of blood alcohol measuring devices may also be affected. Whenpart ofa measuring device acts as an antenna, the accuracy of a sobriety readout may be altered.

  YOUR DMV HEARING RIGHTS
  
  According to the California DMV's website, you have certain legal rights at a DMV administrative hearing, including:
  
  The right to be represented by an attorney at your own expense. Representation by an attorney is not required. You have the right to review the evidence and to cross examine the testimony of any witnesses for the department, and to present evidence and witnesses on your own behalf, as well as the right to testify on your own behalf.
  
  Following the hearing, you have the right to be provided a decision in writing. Should the decision resulting from the hearing be against you, you have the right to request the department to conduct an administrative review of the decision, as well as the right to appeal the decision to superior court.
  
  Requests for the administrative review (also called "Departmental Review") or to appeal the decision in court must be made within a certain time period dependent on the type of hearing and as described in the Vehicle Code. These time periods and other specific information concerning your rights will be stated on the notice containing the hearing decision.

1. McDonnell & Kent:
  California has two basic drunk driving laws, found in Vehicle Code sections 23152(a) and 23152(b).
  1. 23152(a) It is a misdemeanor to drive under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs
  2. 23152(b) It is a misdemeanor to drive with .08% or more of alcohol in your blood.
  Note: In most cases, both the 23152(a) and (b) offenses will be charged. Even though there is only one act, the law says that a defendant can be convicted of BOTH offenses -- but can only be punished for one (the punishments are identical). Vehicle Code section 23153 sets forth the "felony DUI" provisions where an injury results from the drunk driving, while Penal Code sections 191.5 and 192 describe the crime of "vehicular manslaughter" where there is a death.

1. Markham, David: Whether you have been charged with driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs (DUI) for the first time or you are a repeat offender, you face serious consequences. Those consequences are even more severe if you are accused of causing injury or death in a car accident. You can get help from a local lawyer who knows the courts that handle these matters and will give you personal attention. You do not need to turn to a big law firm from outside of the area that is more concerned with getting the case over with than they are with getting you through this.
2. Conwell, William: DUI Offense Requires Immediate Action The charge of Driving Under the Influence involves two separate proceedings: a criminal action filed by the state and an administrative proceeding initiated by the police officer and filed by the Department of Motor Vehicles. These proceedings affect both in-state and out-of-state drivers. To fully protect your driving privilege, you need to prevail in both proceedings. In most instances, if you are arrested for driving under the influence you will automatically lose your privilege to drive if you do not request a hearing within 10 days of the date of arrest. That is why you need to contact my office as soon as possible after your arrest, even if you are contemplating using the public defender to defend your criminal case. You do not have a right to have an attorney appointed for you if you cannot afford one at an administrative hearing. If you cannot afford an attorney at the criminal proceedings; I can represent you in the DMV action alone at a very affordable rate and then you are free to seek a public defender to handle the criminal case. It is important to fight all charges of DUI because the law is becoming more strict every year. The law regarding prior offenses has extended the "look back" period to 10 years. The law regarding what is high blood alcohol was reduced from .20% Blood Alcohol Content to .15% Blood Alcohol Content just a couple of years ago. DMV Action Frequently, the ticket given by the police gives a court date months ahead. The pink temporary license provided is valid for thirty days. These facts frequently lull drivers into believing they can delay contacting an attorney and nothing will happen until the court date. Nothing can be farther from the truth, if you donŐt request a hearing within 10 days of your arrest and you are given a pink temporary license, then you will most likely lose your driving privilege when the ŇpinkÓ temporary license expires thirty days after your arrest. So act immediately! Note there are enhanced penalties for those under the age of 21 and for commercial drivers that can result in lengthy suspensions or termination of your commercial driving privilege completely. The DMV administrative hearing is completely separate from the criminal action. In most cases, the evidence consists entirely of documentary evidence and the rules of evidence. Careless errors made by the police, DMVŐs failure to put on sufficient evidence, or an affirmative defense may result in victory at the administrative hearing. A victory at the DMV hearing helps the criminal defense because it means that you keep your license while the criminal matter proceeds. The DMV hearing is concerned with only 3 issues: 1. The peace officer had reasonable cause to believe you were driving a motor vehicle in violation of Vehicle Code section 23140, 23152, or 23153. 2. You were placed under lawful arrest. 3. You were driving a motor vehicle when you had .08% or more by weight of alcohol in your blood. A DMV hearing is like a three legged stool. If you prevail on any one of these issues then you win the hearing. The evidentiary rules at these hearings may be based upon the California Evidence Code, but they are applied in a manner that are unique to DMV hearings. If you win the DMV hearing then you have overcome the first hurdle to protect your driving privilege. Furthermore, by prevailing at the DMV hearing and later pleading to a lesser charge, this may result in reduced education expense and no suspension of your driving privilege. In some cases, a DMV hearing can be used to help the criminal case by giving me an opportunity to question the police officer under oath. Later at trial, this testimony can be used to lock down the officerŐs testimony or challenge the veracity of the police officer. This can be a potent weapon for the defense in a subsequent DUI trial. It takes a skilled DUI lawyer to represent you at these hearings who understands the nuances of a DMV hearing. These hearings differ significantly from a criminal hearing due to the administrative nature of the proceedings. Scientific Evidence A DUI is unlike most other misdemeanor charges because the prosecution must rely upon scientific evidence in order to prove its case. Any problems that may exist with the police equipment, the manner the equipment was used or maintained, reasons why the equipment couldnŐt operate properly, (certain medical conditions may affect the accuracy of the equipment,) mean even the worst case may suddenly become a defensible one. Furthermore, there are many other defenses that may be applicable to your case, which a lay person may not realize exist. I prepare each case as if it will go to trial because that is the only way I can test the prosecutionŐs case and uncover any weaknesses. These weaknesses can also be used to assist the defense in plea negotiations to get reduced punishment. Legal Research Oftentimes, a DUI may raise issues regarding the validity of the traffic stop or other Fourth Amendment claims. Such claims may stop the prosecution cold in its tracks because if the evidence is suppressed, the basis for the prosecution cannot be used against you at trial. Other legal issues include challenging prior convictions. A successful motion to strike a prior conviction results in reduced punishment because the prior conviction will no longer exist. In order to challenge a prior conviction, a lawyer must first acquire the record and weigh the merits of filing the motion before taking action. Speedy trial motions can be very effective in Lake County. If the case is more than one year old then the court may dismiss your case outright. I have had great success with these motions in this county. I am very familiar with a variety of alternative sentencing that can be employed instead of jail, such as residential treatment. These alternatives can be very attractive in third and fourth offenses where the mandatory jail term can be quite long and no legal defense exists. Some attorneys believe that the prosecution never varies from standard terms it typically offers. The reality could not be further from the truth. An attorney familiar with your case and the facts specific to your case can often get the prosecution to deviate from those terms. Sometimes I am able to get the prosecution to agree to community service time instead of jail, or, a reduced DMV school requirement; other times it may be more significant such as a plea to a wet reckless in a multiple offense case, or a dry reckless in a low blood alcohol case. Other Benefits of Legal Representation In most DUI cases, I can appear in court without you being present during many of the court proceedings. This saves you time because you will not miss work, potentially risk losing your job, or spending hours waiting in court. Additionally, you can spare yourself the embarrassment of having to tell your boss you need to go to court.
3. Douglas Rhoades: If you're suspected of driving under the influence (DUI) and refuse to take a blood, urine or breath test, your driver's license may be suspended, even if later found not guilty of DUI. You may face further punishment for refusing to take a chemical test to determine your blood alcohol level. Remember that driving is a privilege, not a right, and anytime you drive a vehicle you are impliedly consenting to such a test if you are stopped for suspicion of driving under the influence.

A person is guilty of DUI if he or she drives or is in actual physical control of a motor vehicle and is under the influence of alcoholic beverages or any chemical or controlled substance to the extent that his or her mental faculties are impaired or when his or her blood alcohol level (BAC) is above the legal limit for the state.
