Our Washington DUI attorneys can help you protect your rights.
Getting arrested and charged with a Washington DUI is a life changing experience that most people want to put behind them as quickly as possible. It all starts when you’re pulled over by a Police Officer and forced to compete against yourself in a roadside track meet. With no way to know whether you are passing the test, you simply do whatever the Washington officer asks, and the next thing you know you end up in jail.
Most people think that the hardest part comes after the arrest – when it’s time to deal with the Washington Court. The time right after your arrest is when your emotions are running the most high. You feel embarrassed, especially if you had to explain everything to your family or your boss. You feel like the world is caving in you, because you realize that a Washington DUI is going to affect every aspect of your life. On top of that, the law only gives you 20 days to request a hearing with the Department of Licensing. If you fail to meet that deadline you will have your license suspended - case closed.
If you’re feeling the overwhelming burden of dealing with a Washington drunk driving arrest, now is the time to talk to one of our Washington DUI lawyers and find out how we can help you move forward with your life. We understand what you’re going through. We defend hundreds of honest, hard-working Washington residents every year, making sure that they have an aggressive defense strategy to attack the case against them. Our firm has over 30 years of combined experience handling complicated DUI law, and we are ready to offer you the support you need to get through this trying ordeal.
Our Washington DUI lawyers will be by your side at your DOL hearing.
The first obstacle you face in dealing with your DUI arrest is scheduling a Washington Department of Licensing hearing. You only have 20 days from the time of your arrest to arrange your hearing with the DOL, so it’s vital that you act quickly so our Washington DUI attorneys can start working on your case.
Obviously, now is not the time to let your emotions get the better of you. While a DUI charge can be paralyzing, there is very little time for you to act on your own behalf. By contacting one of our Washington State DUI lawyers immediately for a free case evaluation, you give us the best chance of aggressively attacking the case against you. Your DOL hearing is important because it determines whether you will have your license suspended or not. Establishing a sound defense strategy, based on Washington law, is vital if you are going to have any chance at all. Failure not only means that you will lose your license, but you will be required to carry high-risk (SR-22) auto insurance for three years. This is a financial burden you want to avoid.
Our Washington DUI lawyers will fight to keep you validly licensed, and will be standing at your side during your DOL hearing, ready to lend valuable support.
Our Washington DUI attorneys try and minimize the penalties you face.
If you are convicted of a Washington DUI, you face a series of mandatory penalties. These punishments are swift and severe, so you will want a Washington drunk driving attorney to help you mitigate the hardship on you and your family.
The mandatory DUI penalties you could face in Washington include having a criminal record, having your license suspended, jail time, expensive fines, alcohol and drug treatment, and you could be forced to install an interlock ignition device on your vehicle. One must also consider the intangible difficulties a Washington DUI can cause. Often these are the hardest to overcome and include stress, possible loss of employment, and even family problems or hardships. With so much at stake it makes sense to consider retaining one of our qualified Washington DUI lawyers to make sure everything legally possible is being done to minimize these harsh penalties. Your Washington State drunk driving lawyer acts a barrier between you and the State, making sure that your side of the story is heard. All of our WA DUI attorneys believe that the charges against our clients can be attacked on some level, in every case, depending on the police reports.
Dealing with the aftermath – our Washington DUI lawyers can help.
Because a DUI arrest is so traumatic, many people have trouble dealing with the stress during the aftermath of their arrest. This is understandable. It’s easy to get trapped in your own thoughts as you ponder all of the potential outcomes of your WA drunk driving case. In our experience, people usually let their thoughts get the better of them. While our lawyers would never try to downplay the seriousness of DUI charges, most people’s imagination makes the problem even worse than it already is.
The danger in this is that it can cause a person to go into flight mode and ignore the problem, albeit unintentionally. By talking to one of our Washington DUI lawyers, you immediately begin to release some of the burden you carry. Not only that, you will start to get some factual information based on Washington DUI law, and not the opinion of a friend or coworker with no legal experience. This will immediately boost your mental attitude toward the situation, as you realize that someone is fighting to protect you and your future.
First and foremost; our Washington DUI attorneys want you to remember that you are not a criminal. Every day all over the state, good, honest, hard-working, family minded people are pulled over and arrested for drunk driving. Often, mistakes are made along the way. Sometimes there are issues with the blood-alcohol measuring device. On other occasions, the arresting Officer may have had no legal grounds to pull you over in the first place.
This just highlights the fact that getting down on your self doesn’t solve a thing. Our WA DUI lawyers have the experience needed to build an aggressive defense in your case, but first you have to give us the chance. We offer a free case evaluation that will give you the chance to ask questions, get the facts, and find out how our Washington DUI lawyers would build a defense in your case. It’s a no-risk way for you to decide how to proceed with your case based on our knowledge of the law and experience with the court system.
If you choose to retain one of our Washington State drunk driving lawyers we will start working on your case without delay. We will file your paperwork, investigate your case, and be with you every step of the way.
Our Washington State drunk driving attorneys have got your back.
After your Washington DOL hearing, you will be surprised how quickly everything moves along.

Your Washington State drunk driving lawyer will fight to ensure your rights are being protected every step of the way.
