• Parker Reich: YOU'RE NOT ALONE Anyone who has been arrested for a DUI knows that it is a very traumatic and overwhelming experience from beginning to end. It is the one area of criminal law that can affect people from every walk of life: professionals, politicians, mothers, CEO's, grandparents, and even judges. Most people enjoy having a drink with dinner or out with friends or colleagues at social functions. Unfortunately, the legal limit is .08 and it does not take much alcohol in your system to exceed the limit. SERIOUS CHARGES Even if this is your first offense, you must take the DUI charges against you seriously. This is a charge that will follow you for the rest of your life. A DUI conviction can cause many problems including the loss of your current job, limiting future job opportunities, it will appear on a criminal background check, and will increase your auto insurance premiums substantially just to name a few examples. WASHINGTON DUI LAWS The drinking and driving penalties in Washington State are some of the most severe in the country. Because DUI is a very politically unpopular crime, year after year the legislature continues to increase the penalties against those both charged and convicted. The DUI laws are very complex and defending those charged with a DUI requires a comprehensive understanding of the various defenses available, a willingness to work hard, and ability to be creative. The State of Washington has invested millions of dollars into their DUI program in order to get convictions. Whether you want to take the case to trial and seek an all out acquittal, or plea bargain your case down to a lesser charge, it is critical to hire an attorney that is willing to work hard on your case to achieve the best possible outcome.
