subject: San Diego Dui Lawyer And Legal Professional [print this page] A San Diego DUI lawyer and defense team are widely used to describe the group of attorney's, paralegal's, and other professionals that come together to defend you against driving under the influence or dui related offense in San Diego.
San Diego has some of the highest rates of DUI arrests in the nation for its population size. The area has dramatically stepped up DUI patrols and checkpoints in the areas noted for a 'party' type atmosphere. Some speculate that the increased vigilance on DUI enforcement has been due partly to San Diego's fiscal difficulties. It is known that this city is within a bit of a financial bind and searching for ways to bring in more revenue.
Anyway you look at it, if you're arrested for a dui charge you'll want to ensure that your San Diego DUI lawyer and defense team has experience fighting and winning cases here in this city. San Diego offers quite a bit of various DUI firms who do a lot of advertising so choosing the right defense team could be a struggle. We'll discuss how to choose which DUI lawyer to represent you.
First, you will want to ensure that the DUI defense team you choose will actually end up being the exact same team working in your behalf... beware of the 'bait and switch' tactic where you think you're getting the lawyers with the great reputations- however you end up getting a brand new bar admitted lawyer with no real experience handling your case after you consent to permit the firm to represent you. To avert this simply inquire during the initial consultation who will be physically be handling this case. Be sure you speak with whoever that may be.
Next, you'll want to make certain that the DUI lawyers you choose have experience working with the San Diego District Attorney's office and more importantly they have a great working relationship with the San Diego District Attorney's office.
Final thing to make sure is that the firm only handles DUI cases here in San Diego and no where else. Be sure that that they spend their time here in SD; so that you know they have good relationships and experience.
