DUI defense Long Beach:  If you were arrested for a DUI in Long Beach, we can help you.  Our goal is to provide information to you, answer whatever questions you have, and consult with you to our law firm can help guide you to a successful conclusion of your DUI matter.

Were you Arrested For DUI?

When you are charged with a DUI in Long Beach, or anywhere in California, you actually have two cases pending against you. One case is criminal, and the other is civil (administrative). Your criminal case is prosecuted by the Prosecutor’s Office. The civil case is a DMV License Hearing regarding your driver’s license and is handled by the California Department of Motor Vehicles Office of Driver Safety, in the City of El Segundo.

With the DMV, you only have 10 days after your arrest to request separate a hearing from your court date.  That can save your license.

Potential Punishment for Long Beach DUI cases:

The law has a maximum (six months in jail, an alcohol school, and fines and fees that total $5000), and a minimum (three years probation, an alcohol school, and base fines of $390).  In LA County, DUI cases are sometimes reduced to another charge, which would reduce the entire sentencing range below the minimum.

The prosecutor can, and will, add punishment if there were any of the following:

  • a blood alcohol level of at or above a .16%;
  • children in the car;
  • an accident (with or without injury);
  • an allegation that you were speeding while DUI;
  • or any priors.

We can help avoid the more severe punishment for any of the above.

The good news is that there is a way to avoid losing your driving privileges, and you probably will not face any jail time for a first time DUI.  

What can you do for my DUI case?

Orange County DUI Attorneys

Our approach to DUI Defense Long Beach is to carefully review all the evidence in the case.  We look at the reason you were pulled over for DUI, to see if a probable cause issue might dismiss the DUI.  We look carefully at all aspects of the testing and scrutinize the breath test or blood testing to hold the testing machine up to the strict requirements of the law.  For example, machines can malfunction or not be properly calibrated, blood levels can fail to take into consideration the rising blood alcohol pattern, and the blood sample can ferment and produce alcohol, causing an increase in the blood alcohol level.
