​

2. License Suspension Hearings: After a DUI arrest, your driver's license may be at risk of suspension. Our attorneys will represent you at administrative hearings, fighting to protect your driving privileges and exploring avenues to reinstate your license. Demanding the formal review hearing to protect your driver’s license from an administrative suspension within ten (10) days after the arrest. 

3. Attending the first court date, the “arraignment”. 

4. Filing and litigating pre-trial motions. 

5. Field Sobriety Test Challenges: Field sobriety tests are not foolproof and can be influenced by various factors. Our attorneys will evaluate the validity of these tests and challenge their accuracy in court if necessary.

We will negotiate with the prosecutor from the State Attorney’s Office to resolve the case for lesser charges such as reckless driving and entering you into a diversion program.
