Being arrested for a DUI in Long Beach California can be a terrifying
experience. Having an experienced attorney on your side can help to ease your
anxiety and stress and ensure that the arrest does not lead to a conviction or
permanent suspension of your driving privilege.
When a person is arrested for a DUI in the Long Beach area he or she is given
a Court date for the criminal charge, VC23152, and a pink DMV slip informing
them that there drivers license will be suspended. You have the right to
challenge the loss of your license at the DMV and fight the criminal charges in
Court. A Long Beach DUI Lawyer can assist you in the protection of your rights.
In California, under the administrative per se laws a person arrested for a DUI
can request a DMV hearing to challenge the suspension. We are often asked
"What are my chances of winning at the DMV" ? The best answer to that
question is you will have a 100% chance of losing your license if you choose not
to challenge the suspension by way of a hearing, however if you retain
experienced counsel to represent you, someone who has done hundreds of
hearings, then your chances improve dramatically. California DUI Law is very
specialized, having an experienced lawyer guide you through the legal process
can make the difference in your case.
Issues that can result in a set aside of the suspension and a dismissal of the
criminal DUI charge in the Long Beach Court are: failure to follow the proper
procedures in administering the breath or blood test (Title 17), an illegal arrest
or detention, insufficient evidence of impairment, lack of evidence of drunk
driving, Satisfactory performance on the field sobriety tests, improper blood
collection, Miranda Rights Violations, among many others. An attorney can also
help if the DUI arrest involved a car accident or a Hit and Run.
If your breath test was over .08%, or if there was a blood sample withdrawn or a
refusal reported, the Long Beach police probably took your license and issued
you a notice of suspension and 30-day temporary license. A first offense DUI
involves a four-month suspension; a refusal or a second offense within ten
years will result in a one-year suspension. These suspensions can be
successfully contested by an experienced Long Beach CA Drunk Driving
attorney, but it is critical that the individual or, preferably, his attorney,
CONTACT THE DMV WITHIN 10 DAYS OF THE ARREST. The importance of
this cannot be overstated; without a properly submitted request, there will be no
hearing and the suspension will automatically take effect 30 days after the
arrest.
Things you must know about a Long Beach DUI conviction are important. First
of all, if you plead guilty or no contest to a DUI in Court it will cost you well over
$10,000 over the next 3 years. Secondly, if you are under 21 you will lose your
license for at least one year if you do not fight the case. If you are convicted of
drunk driving the judge may order an ignition interlock to be installed on your
car. You could be ordered to complete an alcohol education class for up to 18
months.
If you are licensed in another state other than California you must request a
DMV hearing within 10 days or you will lose your drivers license in your home
state. An experienced Long Beach DUI Lawyer can defend you at the DMV
administrative hearing and many seasoned attorneys, like the ones in our office,
