Drunk Driving Defense
The consequences of being arrested for DUI/ DWI can be severe, but retaining a competent Attorney can make all the difference in the world. Knowledge is the key to defending a DUI/ DWI. The practice of DUI/ DWI defense involves more than the Criminal Court system. That is why it is imperative that you retain a lawyer who understands administrative law and regularly appears before DMV hearing officers to challenge Drunk Driving license suspension actions.
LIN LAW GROUP will fight on both fronts for you—the Court and the DMV! Upon retaining Mr. LINr’s services, he will immediately demand a hearing with the DMV to contest any proposed license suspension. Please note that it is imperative that a demand for a hearing with the DMV be made within 7 days of your arrest, so do not delay!
There are several factors that must be considered if you are charged with a DUI/ DWI. The legality of your arrest, field sobriety tests, proper functioning test equipment, correct handling of your evidence, and the conduct of the arresting officers are frequently contentious issues during legal proceedings. Many people who believed themselves guilty discovered they could avoid serious penalties when any number of these variables failed to withstand legal scrutiny.
*If you did a breathalyzer test, you have SEVEN DAYS to contact the DMV to request a hearing. You should have received a temporary license at the time of your arrest and upon completion of the breathalyzer test. This license is valid for 7 days only, during which you or your attorney must contact the DMV to request a DMV Hearing. This DMV request will allow you to continue driving until the DMV Hearing is completed and the Administrative Law Judge has made a decision regarding the suspension of your driving privileges.
*If you were given a blood test, it takes approximately 30-45 days for the blood test results to come back. After the blood test results have been determined, DMV will send you a letter informing you that your driving privileges will be suspended for a 90 day period. Contact us immediately upon receiving the DMV letter.
The Charges:
One of the first questions you’ve probably asked yourself is “What penalties could I be facing?” Bearing in mind that penalties vary based on several factors, here are the guidelines set out by the State of Nevada for a first offense:
- 2 days to 6 months jail sentence
- Fines from $400 to $1,000
- Mandatory participation in “Victim Impact Panel”
- 8 hours of DUI School – (Can be done online)
- License revocation of 90 days
If the BAC is above .18, the Court will require an Alcohol/Drug assessment to be done before Sentencing, which could result in an additional 6 months of counseling.
We work hard – because we know that your future depends on it.
