Vancouver Drunk Driving Arrest Attorneys
Driving under the influence (DUI) is an extremely serious offense that can carry stiff penalties if you are convicted, including jail, fines and driver's license suspension. With so much on the line, it is important that you have an experienced criminal defense lawyer who has the skill and the commitment to protect your interests.
The Vancouver DUI defense attorneys at Spencer & Sundstrom have a combined total of nearly 40 years experience in the County District and Superior courts and in the local area municipal courts of Battle Ground, Ridgefield, La Center, Camas and Washougal. We have a complete understanding of Washington law in DUI, DWI and DUI-Drug matters, and we know what it takes to reach a favorable outcome for our clients.
Building the Strongest Possible Defense on Your Behalf
There are specific rules that the police are required to follow in the course of conducting a DUI investigation. If the officer oversteps his or her authority at any point, it could constitute a violation of your rights and provide the opportunity to have evidence suppressed or the charges dismissed. Our attorneys have successfully challenged DUI arrests based on the validity of the stops, field sobriety tests, blood alcohol concentration (BAC) tests and others.
We have also handled many DUI-Drug cases. The penalties in these cases are very similar to an alcohol-related DUI. We know how to investigate these cases and what to look for in order to present a strong defense. We will review the findings of the Drug Recognition Expert (DRE), police reports and any other evidence to find the flaws in the case that can be used to your advantage.
We can also represent you in your Administrative License Suspension hearing and any related appeals. This is separate from the criminal proceeding and only addresses the status of your driving privileges. We have substantial experience with these matters, and we work diligently to preserve your driving privileges.
