A DUI lawyer will help you understand and protect your rights following a
DUI arrest. If you call our DUI lawyers in Santa Monica California immediately
upon your arrest, we will advice you on your rights and answer questions about
your arrest and what to do next.
At the time of your arrest, you should have been informed of your Miranda
rights. Miranda rights are designed to protect you in relation to police questioning
and legal advice. One of the fundamental rights is to have an attorney present
during questioning. In fact, you should not answer any police questions
other than your identity unless your lawyer is present.
You should immediately call our DUI lawyers in Santa Monica California following
your arrest, or after you are released from the police station.
Even if you answered questions at the time of your arrest, our attorney can
still be able to help you with your defense. One of the first steps is to examine
the actual arrest. DUI attorney Neil Shouse of Santa Monica California, will
examine your arrest to establish whether the arrest was legitimate or not.
If the arresting officer failed to read you your Miranda rights at the time
of your arrest, Mr. Shouse believes that this failure may actually work on
your behalf. While it will not mean an immediate dismissal of all charges,
our DUI lawyer staff in Santa Monica California may prevent the evidence gathered
from being admitted in your case.
Many people mistakenly believe that volunteering information to the police
officers will help their case. While DUI lawyers certainly don’t recommend that
you become belligerent or uncooperative, there’s no reason to offer information
that could be harmful to your case.
Instead, you can respectfully say “I’d like to speak to a lawyer
before I answer questions.”
