Las Vegas DUI Defense Lawyer
Most people don't get behind the wheel intentionally if they know they are too drunk to drive. However, sometimes our judgment isn't the best. Some people leave happy hour after a few glasses of wine and think they are fine. Other people drink a few beers while they are gambling and don't realize the impact it will have on their driving.
Regardless of the events leading up to the arrest, if you were pulled over for drunk driving, you are probably concerned about keeping your driver's license and protecting your criminal record.
When clients contact my firm — Mace J. Yampolsky & Associates — I can help. I defend clients throughout Las Vegas who are facing charges for driving under the influence (DUI). I represent clients in drunk driving matters, including:
- Misdemeanor DUI: Most people who are arrested a first or second time for drunk driving face misdemeanor DUI charges. I work with clients to protect their driving privileges and keep the charges off their record.
- Felony DUI: People who have been arrested more than two times for drunk driving face additional penalties if they are convicted. I work with clients to protect their rights and help minimize the charges they are facing.
- Underage DUI: Nevada law states that the legal BAC for people under the age of 21 is .02. This means almost anyone who has even one drink will exceed the legal limit. I defend people who are facing charges for underage drinking and driving.
- Felony DUI with death or bodily harm: When fatal car accidents involve drunk drivers, they are normally blamed for the accident, regardless of who is actually at fault. I work with my clients to protect their rights and driving privileges during DUI cases.
If you were arrested for drunk driving, it is important to contact an experienced criminal defense attorney as soon as possible. I have over 25 years of experience working with clients and can work to protect your record and your rights. Contact me online or call 702-487-4762 to schedule your free initial consultation.
