Orange County DUI Attorneys

Your choice of legal counsel is not a decision to take lightly. The attorney you choose can mean the difference between excellent results or real complications. If you want to be fully informed about your legal rights and you want attorneys who will fight for your rights, (and not a DUI broker/dump truck who is just going to take your money and plead you out), call us. We will aggressively represent you both in your court trial and at the Department of Motor Vehicles hearing.

Braden & Tucci will give your case the personal attention it needs. Your problem is our problem and we will handle your case as if it were our own. That is what we would expect and you shouldn’t settle for anything less.

Don’t and you’ll guarantee the result. Defending yourself in the criminal justice system will be almost impossible and very rarely successful. Some legal commentators call drunk driving the guilty until proven innocent exception to the Constitution. Drunk driving is a complex field of law. The politics and the odds are stacked against you. The penalties for driving under the influence of alcohol and or drugs can be very severe. The penalties may include the following: a jail sentence; a substantial fine; attendance in alcohol abuse classes; suspension, revocation, or restriction of your driver’s license; and/or other penalties. Further, pleading guilty to a DUI will result in your insurance premiums doubling and even tripling over the next several years. Often the fines are not as financially draining as the rise in insurance costs.

A drunk driving arrest triggers two separate legal actions against you. One is the criminal action. The other is the DMV civil action to automatically suspend your license. Often with skilled and aggressive representation, it may be possible to have the charges dropped or reduced without the expense of trial. However, we prepare EVERY case as if it were a trial case. Obviously, not every case is a trial case. But we prepare every case that way for two reasons:

1. In case it is a situation where we are going to trial, we’re ready.
2. It is the best way to ensure a possible reduction or dismissal of the charges before trial.

Either way, the client has been afforded quality, aggressive representation which will in turn ensure the best possible result. If your case is filed as a misdemeanor, the law permits me to attend all of the court appearances on your behalf. You won’t have to miss time from work and you don’t have to suffer the stress and anxiety of appearing in court. It is quite possible that I will be able to resolve your case to your satisfaction without you ever having to set foot in the courtroom. Remember the more experience your attorney has with DUI cases, the better your outcome and the less chance you as the client will have a negative experience from the system.

The reason you are on this website is that you already aware of the need to speak with and possibly hire an experienced DUI attorney with a proven track record. It is possible that the police may have violated your rights or committed some error that could result in the charges against you being reduced or even dismissed. Therefore, it is very important that you speak with us as soon as possible after your arrest.
