Should You Hire a Lawyer to Fight a First-Offense DUI?
While it is possible to represent yourself in a DUI hearing, we know from experience that a skilled lawyer can help you minimize the sentence and other consequences in ways you simply can't. The fact is judges in Santa Clara County and surrounding areas often give more time and higher fines to men and women who are not represented.
Without an experienced lawyer at your side, you will probably be unable to challenge the automatic suspension of your drivers' license. You will almost certainly not be in a position to determine if your rights or police procedures were violated in your arrest — a potentially solid defense against DUI charges. You will not have the benefit of experienced guidance in how to put your life back on track.
You need a lawyer who will tell you the truth. DUI carries a mandatory, cookie-cutter sentence. There is just not a lot of wiggle-room regarding penalties. Although it is possible to beat a DUI charge on the evidence, this rarely happens. You should be skeptical of any lawyer who claims they will win your case by challenging blood alcohol or field sobriety tests.
At the Law Office of Charles M. Kramer, we take a realistic approach to these cases. If there is a defense, we will aggressively pursue all avenues, including motions to suppress evidence vital to the prosecution's case. In most circumstances, however, our clients are best served by attorney Charles M. Kramer's demonstrated ability to negotiate a reduction in charges and to minimize collateral consequences such as elevated insurance premiums. He uses his skill and more than three decades of experience to fight for the best resolution you can reasonably expect.
