No one plans on receiving a DUI, but the fact is that the holidays spell a rise in DUI instances due to the increase of routine sobriety checks. The attorneys at Knochel Law Office are experienced criminal law, divorce and family attorneys who boast expert DUI and DWI attorneys and litigation experts. The most important thing to remember is that if you have been charged with a DUI, getting the right DUI and DWI attorney on your side is paramount to defending criminal charges, avoiding license suspension and getting your life back on track.

Holiday DUI charges will ordinarily follow the same trajectory as any other DUI charge. Treat your DUI stop/charge as you would any other incriminating situation and state to the officer that you are exercising your Fifth Amendment right to remain silent if questioned. In addition to the criminal charges that may be filed against people for an alleged DUI, such people are likely to face an additional DMV hearing regarding the possible suspension of their license.

When a client is facing this two-fold trajectory, they can expect an expert DUI and DWI attorney from the Knochel Law Office to work diligently and advance a vigorous defense to any DUI charge. The reason this is so important is because a DUI conviction can have the same effect as any other criminal conviction with regard to employment, criminal record and life opportunities. Many times a defense strategy includes pointing out that the evidence at trial is faulty or was seized illegally, so consulting with an experienced DUI and DWI attorney before pleading guilty is vital to defending oneself against the repercussions associated with a criminal conviction.

The attorneys at the Knochel Law Office will vigorously defend your case during a DMV hearing to reach the most favorable terms for a possible license suspension. Aside from jail time, a license suspension can adversely affect employment. Many times their offices have been able to negotiate for a restricted license rather than suspension, so clients can still get to work and not place their employment in jeopardy.

If you have been charged with a DUI this holiday season, contact an experienced DUI and DWI attorney at the Knochel Law Office. Their attorneys are available to take your call when you are in need. Reach their offices by calling (928) 444-1000 or by visiting them online.
