For us every case is treated with passion and determination to win.

All Bakersfield DUI cases are heard in the Superior Court on Truxton Avenue, our Kern County office is located a mere block away from the Court and we appear there just about every day.  With regard to the drivers license suspension component of the DUI case, the file is sent to Bakersfield Driver Safety where the APS unit will hold a hearing to determine whether your license will be suspended.  In order to get a DMV hearing however it is necessary to make a formal request with 10 days of the date of the violation.  Fortunately, we have substantial experience in both aspects of the DUI case, the criminal side as well as the DMV side.

Over the last fifteen years we have saved hundreds from the dreaded stigma of a DUI conviction by utilizing innovative defenses and aggressive approaches.  For example, in one recent case our client was charged with DUI after being pulled over in downtown Bakersfield after a night out with some friends.  Much to her surprise, the blood test that she took at the jail came back with a B.A.C of .24%.  Our office immediately took the necessary  steps to obtain a DMV hearing in Bakersfield and we challenged the blood test on various evidentiary grounds and attacked the lab protocol in how the results were reported.  To the amazement of our client we persuaded the DMV to set aside the suspension and they threw out the blood test.  Our client walked away with no drivers license suspension.

We also fight DUI cases on the grounds that our client's consitutional rights were violated.  In one recent case we were successful in getting a DUI thrown out in the Bakersfield Court after persuading the Judge that our client was pulled over without probable cause.  The case victory was even more amazing given the fact that our client had two DUI priors and was on probation at the time.  We take the Constitutional Rights of our clients very seriously and do not leave any stone unturned when fighting a Bakersfield DUI charge. Among the challenges we have used to get Bakersfield DUI charges dismissed are: false arrest insufficient evidence of intoxication, bad breath tests, failure to follow the regulations, police officer error, medical issues, refusal to take a chemical test, lack of proof of driving, miranda rights violations, and many others.
