At Rivers Legal Services, my goal as your DUI lawyer is to help form creative solutions. I personally build your case, collecting evidence, assessing field sobriety tests, and reviewing testimonies to make sure the truth is represented. I want to help you reach a favorable solution in a stressful situation.

Whether this is their first DUI offense or second offense, one of the first questions clients ask is on what penalties will face for their charges. Remember, you are innocent until proven guilty, so your focus should be building your defense, not embracing for penalties! However, knowing what to expect can be helpful when crafting a strategy to withstand the prosecution attacks.

• Heavy fines, including restitution, court fees, and towing expenses
• Varying jail times depending on level of intoxication
• Driver's license suspension
• Alcohol and drug treatment programs
• Potential for ignition interlock device installation on your vehicle

Even if you refused or failed your field sobriety tests, you must make sure you are aggressively represented through all legal proceedings. The sooner you start working on your defense, the more effective it will likely be.
