DUI-Related Offenses in Orange County, California

There are many offenses related to driving under the influence (DUI) that a driver may face. The Orange County DUI attorneys and lawyers at Gold & Witham are familiar with defending clients facing these charges, some of which include the following:

• DUI Auto Accidents
• Felony DUI
• DUI Causing Injury
• Hit and Run
• Vehicular Manslaughter
• Out of State DUI
• Breath Test Refusals
• Drugs and DUI Arrests

The specific circumstances of an arrest and what type of DUI charges a person faces will determine the penalties he or she may receive. With any type of driving under the influence conviction, a driver will lose his or her driving privileges. Additional criminal penalties, depending upon the severity of the DUI-related charges, may include fines, court fees, community service, alcohol rehabilitation, and time in county jail or state prison. Certain DUI-related charges are extremely serious and may result in years in a California state prison! A civil lawsuit may also be brought against an individual charged with vehicular manslaughter or DUI causing injury – where the victim or victims will seek monetary compensation for their injuries or losses.

Regardless of the specific DUI-related charges a driver faces, it is always in his or her best interest to consult an Orange County DUI attorney as soon as possible. At the very least, an attorney will be able to inform the driver if he or she needs legal representation, and what to do in the immediate future. If the driver decides to retain the services of a defense lawyer, this means that the lawyer can get started in building a strong plan of action for defending the charges.
