Charged With DUI? Seek a Lawyer's Help.
No one plans to get a DUI, but traffic stops that lead to drunk driving charges happen every day in Minnesota. If you have been charged with DUI, it is critical that you seek an attorney's help quickly.
The consequences of a DUI (often referred to as a DWI) are serious. They can affect every part of your life, including your ability to drive a car, obtain housing or get a job. That is why, at the Law Office of Charles M. Schiff, I leave no stone unturned when I defend you against DUI charges.
Don't say anything. Don't sign anything, until you talk to me. — Charles M. Schiff
Thorough Criminal Defense From Beginning to End
At my St. Cloud law firm, I use more than 30 years of experience to help people facing DUI charges. When I take your case, I examine every fact and law that might influence the outcome of your case. My first goal is to determine whether the police officer had sufficient reason to pull you over. My second is to determine if they were justified in administering field sobriety tests, and if those tests were done correctly. I may also review your medical history to determine pre-existing physical conditions that may have caused you to fail a field sobriety test.
If you were subjected to an Intoxilyzer breath test at the police station, I may look at how and when that test was given. There may also be sufficient basis to challenge the validity of the test for other reasons.
For a commercial license holder, the loss of a license can mean the loss of a job. If you have a commercial drivers license (CDL) and have been charged with drunk driving, take action. Contact the Law Office of Charles M. Schiff at 888-257-5163 to talk with me about your driver's license.
Criminal Traffic Offenses Should Not Be Taken Lightly
Charges for driving under a suspended license (driving after suspension), careless or reckless driving, criminal vehicular operation or leaving the scene of an accident can result in fines, suspensions and other penalties.
If you are facing a criminal traffic offense, an experienced, local attorney who knows the ins-and-outs of Minnesota traffic law can be beneficial to you. As an experienced lawyer, I know the law on driving in our state. I use my knowledge and experience to help you achieve the best possible results.
