Effective Representation From an El Cajon Drunk Driving Attorney
In California, any driver with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 percent or higher can face DUI/DWI charges. Penalties with a conviction include heavy fines and the possibility of jail time and license suspension. Underage drivers who violate California's zero-tolerance policy, repeat offenders and anyone caught driving with a BAC of .16 or higher may also face enhanced penalties.
DUI charges should not be taken lightly and require the assistance of a skilled attorney. I am Daniel W. Cohen, a La Mesa DUI defense attorney with a proven track record with these types of cases. I will carefully examine your case to build a strong strategy, which may include working toward deferred sentencing or avoiding/reducing jail time.
If a case is caught in time, I also can help arrange bail and represent your interests in an Administrative Per Se Hearing with the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), where driver's license suspension is determined. I also represent clients in expungement proceedings, seizing any opportunity to help you clear up your criminal record.
