Frequently Asked Questions

What is driving under the influence?

Driving under the influence is when a person illegally operates a motor vehicle while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or both.

How is my blood alcohol concentration determined?

When a person is arrested for DUI, law enforcement will ask them to submit to a blood alcohol test to determine his/her blood alcohol concentration. Your blood alcohol concentration results can be determined through the administration of a breath test, blood test, or urine test.

What is California's blood alcohol limit?

In California, any person who operates a motor vehicle with a BAC of 0.08% or higher is considered above the legal blood alcohol limit.

What happens if I have committed multiple DUI offenses?

If you have been charged with multiple DUIs, your charges will be enhanced. If convicted of multiple DUI, your legal punishments may be enhanced as well. This means you may be subject to lengthier jail time, larger fines, and longer probation terms.

What are field sobriety tests?

Field sobriety tests (FST) are tests that are administered by law enforcement to determine a person's level of intoxication. In California, field sobriety tests are voluntary, which means you can refuse to take them when asked by law enforcement.

Why should I hire a DUI attorney?

When you have been charged with DUI, you need the expert representation of a DUI attorney. Unlike other criminal defense attorneys, a DUI attorney understands and has experience with specifically DUI law. A DUI attorney can evaluate your case, inform you of your rights, investigate the facts surrounding your case, and challenge evidence presented by state prosecutors. When it comes to defending your DUI, the risks are far too great to be without the representation of a skilled attorney.
