Without proper legal representation, a DUI arrest can have a lasting impact on your life. From jail time to thousands of dollars in fines, a night out with coworkers, friends, or family can instantly turn into a nightmare. If you or someone you love has been arrested and charged with driving under the influence, you need an experienced DUI attorney on your side.

“Not only are you looking at a criminal record, but you’re also looking at the social ridicule of your friends and family, getting into your car and seeing you for a whole year blowing into that machine and wondering what all this is about,” DUI attorney Roberto Yranela says. “Nobody wants to be labeled a drunk driver. They’re ostracized in society, and unfairly.”
No one intentionally gets behind the wheel of the car with the intention of putting themselves and others at risk. When it happens, it’s usually an error in judgment. A good DUI attorney knows this and won’t treat you differently or unfairly just because you’ve been charged with driving while under the influence of alcohol.
“It’s about finding what issues work, which issues don’t, knowing the judges, and knowing the prosecutors,” Attorney Yranela says. “Not every issue works in front of the same judge and not every prosecutor cares about a certain argument.”
In Washington state, where Attorney Yranela practices, there’s typically very little leniency for first-time offenders. If you’ve been pulled over and arrested on suspicion of DUI, you will usually spend at least one night in jail and can lose your driver’s license for at least 90 days and up to a year, inconveniencing your everyday life from going to work to running errands.
No matter the circumstances surrounding your arrest, the sooner you speak with an attorney, the sooner they can get to work defending you against the charges you face.
