STEPS YOU MUST TAKE WHEN ARRESTED FOR A DUI/DWI:
WRITE DOWN AS MUCH DETAIL ABOUT THE NIGHT OF YOUR ARREST:
It is a good idea to write as much as you can remember soon after your arrest. This will allow us San Francisco DUI Attorneys, Marin DUI Attorneys, Oakland DUI attorneys to possibly find witnesses or evidence to present in your favor.
GET NAMES AND PHONE NUMBERS OF ALL POTENTIAL WITNESSES FROM THAT NIGHT:
Same reason as above except that this will allow our investigators to locate and speak with the people that were with you on the night of the arrest. So whether you were arrested for a San Francisco DUI, Marin DUI, or an Oakland DUI
DECIDE IF YOU WILL RETAIN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY OR ASK FOR A PUBLIC DEFENDER:
Figure out your finances and decide if it will be cost-effective for you to hire a private attorney or a public defender. A Public Defender, despite false rumors, works just like a private attorney and if properly trained in DUI defense, can do a fantastic job. The main difference between our office and an appointed Attorney is that we are trained (with a PD you may get someone who is not trained in DUI defense, and you do not get to choose your attorney) in DUI defense and our caseload is much smaller. We purposely keep our caseload limited in order to provide each case we handle, the attention it deserves. So if you have been arrested for a San Francisco DUI, a Marin DUI, or an Oakland DUI, call us for a free consultation.
CALL DMV WITHIN TEN DAYS OF YOUR ARREST:
You must call the DMV within ten days of your arrest! The call is to secure your right to a hearing and to request a stay on the suspension of your Driver's License. This is of tremendous importance if you care about your ability to do daily driving. Our office provides a free service with no obligation: Just call us and we will secure your hearing, ask for a stay on the suspension and keep evidence of the request in case it is ever questioned. The reason we offer this service is that sometimes clients can be on hold with the DMV for hours. The notice or warning that you must call within ten days is found in small print near the bottom of the pink temporary license that was given to you during your arrest. If you notice it is well hidden and for a reason. DMV cannot afford a hearing for everyone. Don't pass up your chance to protect and defend yourself. If you have been arrested for a San Francisco DUI, Marin DUI or an Oakland DUI you should call. The DMV has driver safety offices that handle all DUI suspensions in San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento, and San Jose, to name a few.
