If You Have a DUI Conviction in Lee's Summit, MO
If you have a DUI conviction, contact an attorney immediately. Handling a DUI is time-sensitive, your license is at risk of being suspended, or in worse case - completely revoked. The first thing we do for DUI clients is request an administrative hearing to deal with the driving suspension.
When you call an attorney to handle your drunk driving conviction, you'll first need to disclose the number that you blew on the breathalyzer (if you blew.) This will let us know what types of charges you are facing in your DUI case. We will begin by asking you a series of important questions like:
- What caused you to be stopped for DUI in the first place? (swerving, running lights, speeding)
- What led the officer to believe you were intoxicated? (slurred speech, breath, bad balance)
- How well or poorly did you perform on the standardized sobriety tests?
- Is a dash cam video available for review?
- Evaluation of your driving record and any past convictions for DUI.
Answering these questions will put us in a better position to advise you and defend the DUI charge. We'll then advise if it's best to go to trial or to settle with a plea agreement.
