The Law Offices of Barry T. Simons
About Our Firm

 

In order to successfully Defend DUI charges, an Attorney must not only understand the Laws of the State, but must also understand both the Laws of Nature and the Laws of Human Nature. The Laws of the State are designed to facilitate convictions and enhance punishments for persons accused of driving while under the influence of alcohol. They disregard The Laws of Nature - SCIENCE - and assume facts to be true for ALL people based on averages and faulty assumptions. We believe that these cases can be successfully defended by understanding both SCIENCE and LAW and by vigorously challanging the State's evidence at every juncture.

A perfect example of this is Field Sobriety Testing. Police and Prosecutors present this "Junk Science" in Court with an aura of reliability, yet, officers in California do not even comply with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Standardized Field Sobriety Tests. They use tests which have been shown to have little or no correlation to impaired driving and routinely perform these tests improperly. Scientific studies have shown that police will judge sober persons as impaired based upon performance on many of these tests.

The right to drive is critical in our society. A suspended license can effect employment and the overall quality of life. Driving on a suspended license has mandatory jail terms, fines and even the potential of vehicle forfeiture.

We Are Committed To Challange Every DMV Suspension For Every Client.

REMEMBER YOU MUST CONTACT THE DMV WITHIN 10 DAYS OF YOUR ARREST TO REQUEST AN IN PERSON HEARING AND A STAY OF YOUR SUSPENSION. DO NOT SET A HEARING DATE IF YOU INTEND TO HIRE A LAWYER. TELL THE DMV THAT YOUR LAWYER WILL SET THE HEARING.
