Full-Service DUI Representation
DUI cases are unique in that they involve two proceedings: one in criminal court that concerns whether or not a defendant is guilty of committing a crime, and another handled through administrative hearings with the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) which concern a person’s driving privileges.
At The Sills Law Firm, our experience allows our team to handle both aspects of DUI cases, as well as the numerous issues, intricacies, and charges that can arise when motorists are accused of driving under the influence.
Examples of the DUI charges and issues we handle include:
- First & Multiple DUIs
- Felony DUI (DUI Causing Injury or Death)
- Driving Under the Influence of Drugs
- Commercial Driver DUI
- Underage DUI
- Field Sobriety & Chemical Tests
- DMV Hearings and Driver’s License Suspension
- Out-of-State DUI
Protect Yourself Against Serious Penalties
Driving under the influence – whether it involves alcohol, marijuana, drugs, or any combination thereof – has become a top enforcement priority for both police and prosecutors. As such, there are severe penalties upon a conviction, some of which may include:
- Fines and court fees
- Probation
- Driver’s license suspension
- Community service or counseling
- Terms of imprisonment in a county jail or state prison
These penalties come in addition to other repercussions, including the limitations created by criminal records, problems with professional licensing or certain forms of employment, ongoing expenses, and more. The severity of these penalties can also be substantially increased when it comes to the type of DUI charge prosecutors have chosen, as well as whether aggravating factors such as high BAC levels, prior DUI convictions, suspended licenses, open containers, drug possession, accidents or injuries, and others are involved. When they are, the need for hard-hitting legal representation becomes all the more important.
