DUI IN FULLERTON? PUT MY EXPERIENCE ON YOUR SIDE

DUI LAWYER IN FULLERTON, CALIFORNIA

Downtown Fullerton's bars and restaurants make it one of the busiest nightlife areas in north Orange County. With Cal State Fullerton and Fullerton College nearby, the Fullerton Police Department makes many DUI arrests, especially on Thursday through Saturday nights. Officers also patrol the 91, 57, and 5 freeways and major roads like Harbor Boulevard and Commonwealth Avenue.

Fullerton is also home to the North Justice Center, where most DUI cases from north Orange County are heard. I defend DUI cases there regularly.

College Students and DUI

A DUI can put a student's education and future career at risk. Students under 21 face especially strict rules:

A BAC of 0.01% or more can lead to a one-year license suspension under California's zero-tolerance law.
A BAC of 0.05% or more can lead to a criminal charge for drivers under 21.
A BAC of 0.08% or more can lead to a standard DUI charge.

A conviction can affect financial aid, internships, and professional licensing later on. I work to resolve student cases in ways that protect their records and their futures.

Where Fullerton DUI Cases Are Heard

Misdemeanor DUI cases from Fullerton are heard at the North Justice Center, 1275 N Berkeley Avenue. Felony DUI cases may be heard at the Central Justice Center in Santa Ana.

Breath Test Problems

Breath tests are not as accurate as many people think. Results can be affected by mouth alcohol, acid reflux, certain diets, improper calibration, or a failure to observe the driver for the required period before the test. California's Title 17 regulations set strict rules for breath testing. When those rules are not followed, the results can be challenged.

Let Me Do the Talking

I spent eight years as an officer with the Los Angeles Police Department before becoming a defense attorney. I understand the officer's side of a DUI arrest, and I know how to cross-examine officers about their procedures. From the DMV hearing to the courtroom, I fight for the best possible result.
