Lake County’s Daniels, Long & Pinsel, LLC, has a reputation for taking on DUI charges aggressively and fighting for your driving privileges. If this is your first DUI offense, the good news is that your punishment will not be too severe. The bad news is that you may not be at all familiar with the due process surrounding DUIs.
For one, breathalyzer tests don’t always provide 100% accuracy, but it is the suspected driver’s responsibility to ask for a second breathalyzer test. Additionally, in Illinois, an individual who refuses a breathalyzer test can have their drivers’ license suspended for one full year. Their license reinstatement hinges on representation with DUI attorneys who know the score: DLP lawyers will help you contest your license suspension within the strictly adhered 10 day period to help get your drivers license reinstatement underway immediately.
How a DUI Conviction Effects YOU
Those convicted of a second DUI can then see their driver’s license revoked for a minimum of 12 months and maximum of 3 years. A third DUI can permanently alter your life, beyond just taking away your routine mobility: within a certain time span, your third DUI conviction is considered a 2nd class felony. That’s why the Lake County DUI attorneys with Daniels, Long & Pinsel, LLC, strive to remove any and all blots from your criminal record so there is absolutely no chance that you will have to serve time. Repeat offenses can be difficult to argue; DUI attorneys can help demonstrate in court that you have learned your lesson.
