AN ARREST FOR A DUI IN LOS ANGELES CAN BE A VERY TRYING EXPERIENCE...

A conviction for DUI or other Criminal offense has potential far reaching and serious consequences that could linger for a lifetime.  Often times, a conviction can result in incarceration, a lengthy and restrictive probation, large fines, restitution assessments, and deportation if you are not a citizen.  I am one of the most experienced DUI Lawyers in California.  I also represent clients charged with other crimes, both felonies and misdemeanors.  My office is on Wilshire Boulevard near Bundy in West Los Angeles.

HOW IMPORTANT IS AN EXPERIENCED DUI ATTORNEY?

I have practiced criminal defense for 37 years.  I know the Judges and the District Attorneys and they know me.  I have served as a Judge Pro Tempore in the Los Angeles County Superior Courts (in Malibu, West Los Angeles, and Van Nuys).  I have taught law as an adjunct Professor at Pepperdine University School of Law (trial strategy and evidence).

When you go to Court without the help of a skilled and experienced attorney, you are going into a hostile environment blindfolded.  NO ONE in the Court, aside from your attorney, has the exclusive responsibility to protect your fights.  Many of the people who you come into contact with in Court are primarily interested in moving your case through the system as quickly as possible - which is not in a Defendant’s best interest.

An experienced attorney is particularly important in DUI cases.  While I handle a wide variety of Criminal Cases, I have been honored to speak at and teach at DUI Law Conventions including the Statewide Public Defenders, California D.U.I. Association, etc..  I have helped write the definitive textbook on DUI defense, “California Drunk Driving Law.”  Since I began my practice in 1971, I have specialized in DUI cases and have handled in excess of 3,000 DUI cases.  Of these cases 98% were resolved with a favorable outcome (either a favorable trial verdict or a plea bargain deal satisfactory to the client).

DUI law is highly technical.  Due to my experience I can pinpoint small errors the arresting officer(s) may have made which might be enough to convince the District Attorney’s office to not file any charges or to resolve the case very favorably.  I have tried in excess of 300 cases to a jury on DUI charges which is a large number of trials.  This gives me credibility.  The prosecutors know that I will take a case to trial unless they make me a great deal.  Because I go to trial and prosecutors know it and I get great results at trial, the prosecutors will settle the case by way of a plea bargain most of the time.  If we do go to trial, I develop a theory, prepare the case, prepare the witnesses, and win 80% of my trials.  When I am retained to represent someone out of county, I find the best local attorney and have him appear for me until the time of motions and trial.  Once trial starts, I move into the local hotel and we go to war.

If the facts dictate that it is not the best decision for the client to go to trial, I have a great rapport with the Judges and DA's (LA County DA Steve Cooley, pictured on the left tells me to "keep up my good work"), and understand sentencing alternatives so as to minimize incarceration or other negative consequences.
