DUI (driving under the influence) law has taken many drastic turns over the course of the past 20 years.  It has become a political issue since entities like MADD have championed the fight against drunk driving.  In Los Angeles County thousands of dui matters are prosecuted each year.  It is a unique crime because people of all walks of life are prosecuted on a daily basis.

Law enforcement does not discriminate when it comes to the enforcement of dui laws.  They will stop and arrest other police officers, attorneys, judges, doctors, actors etc.  The punishment is also generally uniform.  However, when it comes to punishment, a good criminal defense attorney can make a big difference in what happens to a person charged with a dui.  The potential punishments are numerous.  They include, jail time, loss of driving privilege, cal trans, community service, a visit to the hospital and morgue, substantial fines, alcohol programs, Alcoholic Anonymous meetings, live in drug programs, the installation of an ignition interlock device, private jail, impoundment of vehicles etc.  As you can see from the above list...being charged with a dui is not joke!  You must seek professional advice immediately.  Call the Hedding Law Firm at (818) 986-2092.
