RIVERSIDE DUI - WHAT TO DO FIRST

You have only ten calendar days from the date of arrest to contact the California Department of Motor Vehicles after you have been arrested for driving under the influence.  It is imperative that you contact the DMV within ten calendar days or you face a minimum four month suspension beginning 30 days after your arrest.  If you contact the  Department of Motor Vehicles within ten calendar days and request a hearing in regards to the automatic suspension of your license, you will receive a new temporary license which affords you full driving privileges until a decision is made by the hearing officer on your case.

The DMV hearing is complex and can be very difficult to win.  You should always consult with a qualified Riverside DUI defense attorney within ten calendar days of your arrest so that they can explain the DMV process in detail and contact the Department of Motor Vehicles on your behalf.

A leading Riverside DUI Defense Lawyer will subpoena the appropriate witnesses, documents and records on your behalf.  This can be crucial to winning the court case and the dmv hearing.

One of the most important things you should do immediately after an arrest for a Riverside DUI is write down everything that happened prior to, during and immediately following the arrest.  This information can be crucial to the drunk driving defense attorney who is representing you.  Certain things that the arresting agency may have done may present strong defenses to your case.  In addition, once the police report is received there may be a number of discrepancies and since this may be several months after the arrest, a set of notes can be beneficial.

Finally, it is imperative to take advantage of the free case consultations offered by most Riverside DUI defense law firms.  The Law Offices of Thomas Wallin offers a free intial case consultation.  This gives you the unparalleled benefit of asking questions to the attorney and receiving a candid response.  This will also allow you to gauge your comfort level for the counsel you are desiring to hire, their availability and their experience.
