Walking You Through the Process

It is vital that the DUI process is managed by a skilled Santa Barbara criminal defense lawyer from Lessem, Newstat & Tooson, LLP. We have achieved hundreds of case dismissals over our years in practice. There are two parts to any DUI charge. These include the criminal charge which is addressed in court, and the administrative revocation or suspension of your license, which is addressed in a DMV hearing, if requested.

Once you have been arrested and charged with a DUI, you will have only 10 days in which to request a DMV hearing with regard to your license. We can schedule the hearing and represent you. In many cases, there is compelling evidence that you were not guilty of the crime, whether through errors in the police stop that violated your rights, in the administration of the testing procedures, or in the BAC testing unit itself.

We are very familiar with defending DUI charges and can assist you to fight back. We are trial lawyers and we take immediate action for our clients, and seek any possible opportunity for an advantage in your case. If you are accused of driving drunk, we know how to manage your case and pursue a positive outcome for you. We represent the accused throughout Montecito, Isla Vista, UCSB, Goleta, and Carpinteria.
