Orange County DUI Attorney

California Drunk Driving Defense

Every day lots of people get their driver’s license after taking drivers education and profess to follow the rules of the road. But unfortunately statistics prove that many people break the rules and drive drunk. One drink can impair your driving and you can be arrested and charges with a DUI, driving under the influence.
If this is your first DUI offense you will have a lot of questions relating to your charges. Yes that is right, you can be charged and convicted of two crimes but only punished for one. The standard offense is “driving under the influence of alcohol” (DUI), or in some states, “operating while intoxicated” (OWI), or “driving while intoxicated” (DWI). In recent years, 49 states have also enacted a second, so-called “per se” offense: driving with an excessive blood-alcohol concentration, also known as BAC, (either .08% — as in California — or .10%). In those states, both offenses are charged. The defendant can even be convicted of both, but can be punished for only one.
If the case involves a refusal to submit to chemical testing, of course, only the traditional offense will be charged.
There is a FREE booklet available that will answer 29 of your questions relating to your drunk driving charges. The DUI & DWI Facts booklet gives you the answers you are looking for.
The booklet covers topics relating to costs and penalties, what to do about your driver’s license, what happens in the courts, what to do about car insurance and much more.
Most importantly it also discusses whether or you should hire an attorney or represent yourself. You know the old saying, “A man who acts as his own attorney has a fool for a client”.

I recommend Craig Sturm of Sturm Law on Los Angeles. Craig Sturm is a former Los Angeles County Public Defender.
He has the experience from handling over 2000 DUI cases.
He knows his way thru the Los Angeles court system and is for going to trial and winning!
Go to the website to get the FREE DUI & DWI Facts booklet and then call Craig Sturm to help you see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Staged the week before my junior prom, the program entailed a simulated drunk driving car accident in front of our high school. Participants engaged in a number of activities to stimulate thought about drinking and driving as they were separated from their families for a night. Intended to encourage a sober prom, the program culminated in an assembly attended by juniors and seniors that showcased this video as well as a victim of an actual drunk driving accident. As a member of the “Living Dead,” I was escorted by the Grim Reaper from class while my obituary was read by an IPD officer.
