DUI Defense Attorney in Las Vegas
Many people think that being arrested for drunk driving is the same thing as getting a DUI. That is not correct. Being arrested for drunk driving is different than being convicted of driving under the influence (DUI).
Not everyone who is arrested for drunk driving will be convicted, but it is important to contact an experienced DUI defense lawyer to protect your rights. I bring over 25 years of criminal defense experience to my firm — Mace J. Yampolsky & Associates — and I can help you protect your driving privileges and criminal record.
Reducing the Charges
When clients contact me, my biggest goal is making sure they do not get a DUI conviction on their record. Whether we plead or go to trial, there are ways to mitigate drunk driving charges. Although you may not walk away with a spotless record, reckless driving charges are less serious than drunk driving charges.
Protecting Your Driver's License
If you were arrested for drunk driving, you are probably concerned about losing your driver's license. If your blood alcohol content (BAC) was over .08 when you were arrested or if there was a controlled substance in the vehicle, you will get a notice from the DMV saying your license is revoked. I work with clients to request a DMV hearing and help them secure a temporary license. From there, I work on building the strong case you need to receive a favorable outcome at the criminal hearing.
