First Time DUI Charges

Connecticut Attorney For First Time DUI Offenders

Even if you are facing your first DUI or drunk-driving charge, you need aggressive DUI defense. A first-time offender may face serious consequences such as excessive fines, license suspension, or jail time. As your attorney, I will wage an intensive and strategic defense to protect your rights. My primary objective in your case is to minimize your charges and the penalties you face.

A first time DUI arrest could lead to a conviction that results in loss of license or jail time. Do not take a risk with your rights. Contact a DUI defense lawyer as soon as possible.

Take immediate action to protect your rights as a first-time DUI offender.

You have the right to an investigation of your case by an attorney. At the time of your arrest, an officer may use a breathalyzer or take a blood alcohol test. You may have been forced to perform field sobriety tests. An officer is using this evidence to build a DUI case against you. As your attorney, my role is to investigate the methods and actions of the officer to see if his stop and arrest were proper and if the evidence is accurate and legally obtained.

As an experienced attorney, I will take immediate action from the outset to preserve your rights and minimize penalties in your case. I will represent you in court, negotiate a plea agreement for a lesser offense if we cannot get your charges dismissed, and seek to reduce the amount of fines or costs in the event of a conviction.

I aggressively defend first time DUI defendants, even though penalties may be less severe than for multiple offenses. You should not let a conviction go on your record. I will explore all of your options and alternatives in your case and provide you with legal guidance and advocacy to secure optimal results in your case. I will always take into account your best interests and pursue your desired outcome.
