Wray, CO DUI and DWAI Law Firms & Lawyers

I you cannot afford one, a lawyer will be appointed and you will have to pay back the government over time. This is very serious, I would suggest you borrow the money and hire counsel as this is very serious and has long term future ramifications.

Each county is different. I would not say that .17 was unusual- although in Orange County he would need a six month DUI class. In LA, SAN Bernardino, or Riverside he would take the standard 3 month DUI class. He stands a good chance of having his license suspended for 1 year with no restricted license possible - because he is under 21. In most counties he will not do any jail although some counties he will need to do a week or two of Ankle Bracelet electronic monitoring or work release/caltrans/community service. He will get 3 years informal or summary probationthat's where you just promise not to drink and drive for 3 years - no pee test, no restrictions on leaving the state or country - no probation officer or anything like that. I'd be happy to represent him if he's in OC, LA, San Bernardino, or Riverside county for $1495 ($299/month payments) Aniko "MRS. DUI" Hoover, Esq.

You are confusing a few different concepts in the area of DUI law. First, in Colorado, a previous conviction NEVER goes away. So, if you are pulled over and arrested and charged with DUI, the state would look it at as a second offense. Second, the law in Colorado for DUI is a .08 and above. You are not on probation, so the law that applies to everyone else would apply to you. There are laws in Colorado that make it a presumption that you are under the influence of alcohol if your BAC is over a .05 but below a .08, this means that you may still be charged with DWAI, even if your BAC is under a .08.
