Glendale DWI Attorney

Have You Been Arrested for or Charged with a DUI?

A DUI in Arizona is not just a ticket—it’s a criminal offense that can lead to jail time, a suspended license, and fines. A DUI charge can permanently affect your career and future. If you or a loved one have been arrested for DUI, it does NOT mean you are guilty. It is important to fight against DUI charges, as a first conviction can result in harsh penalties and stay on your record, negatively impacting your future.

DUI lawyers understand the legal system and the type of evidence most likely to win a DUI case. Finding and hiring the right criminal justice attorney can help win your case, get your DUI reduced to a lesser charge, or save you substantial money in fines and fees. Contact our knowledgeable DUI lawyer to represent your rights and ensure you get the best possible outcome.

The penalties for DUI can be more than just fines, including:

License suspension
Jail
DUI screening and classes
Ignition Interlock on your car
Fines and fees
Probation

If you have previous DUI’s on your record, the penalties can be even worse. You could spend even more time in jail, could suffer substantial punishments with MVD, and go longer without a driver’s license. Additionally, the fees could get steeper.

Can a Glendale DUI Lawyer Beat a DUI?

DUI lawyers routinely win cases for their clients. A win can be anything from a courtroom victory to a case that’s quietly dismissed by the judge. We will fight for these victories by picking away at the prosecution’s evidence. This includes:

Breath and blood tests. Breathalyzers are sensitive machines, and if they are not maintained or calibrated properly the results may not be admitted to court. Blood and urine tests can be rejected if lab protocols were not followed perfectly.
Police testimony. Police frequently make mistakes. From the initial report to the MVD hearing to the courtroom, we will look for inconsistencies or bias in the officers’ statements.
Statements you made. If your rights were violated during questioning, the statements you made may not be used against you.

Through these steps, a prosecutor will often come to the bargaining table. Ben Padgett Law works to throw out key evidence that may get your entire case dropped.

What if I’m Charged with a DUI, and I’m Not From Arizona?

Assisting Out-of-State Residents

After the shock of an Arizona arrest has worn off, Out-of-State residents must then consider how Arizona’s strict DUI laws will continue to disrupt their lives after returning home. Some of Arizona’s requirements make little sense to them because they differ substantially from the law in their own state. We help non-Arizona residents resolve their DUIs, in many cases having to return to Arizona only once, in some circumstances not at all.

Affordable and Flexible Legal Fees

Hiring a Glendale criminal justice lawyer for a serious criminal case can be expensive. We understand that every client is coming from different circumstances in a tough economy, but we also believe that every person has the right to the best legal defense available. Because of our experience dealing with so many types of cases and clients, Ben Padgett Law is able to offer affordable legal fees and financing through payment plans when needed.
