By consulting with and eventually retaining a DUI lawyer Whatcom County, Snohomish County or Skagit County prosecutors are immediately put on notice that your case will involve much more work on their behalf. Their case will now be scrutinized and investigated and not assumed to be straight forward and an easy conviction. The more you make a prosecutor work, but better the chance that you’ll receive a more favorable outcome. We can meticulously examine every part of your arrest, from the initial police stop to the field sobriety tests to the DOL hearing and the final trial. After our investigation, an aggressive defense strategy will be mounted and taken to court if your charges have not been reduced or dropped before then.
The extent of the penalties for drunk driving in Washington depend on whether you were charged with DUI with a BAC above 0.15 (or a “refusal”) or less than 0.15. Regardless of the apparent severity of your Whatcom County DUI charge, you could be required to pay steep fines and court costs, receive a license suspension, complete an alcohol drug evaluation, enroll in an alcohol education program, attend a DUI victim panel, install an ignition interlock device for a minimum period of one year, obtain SR 22 insurance and serve a jail sentence. You will also be placed on probation for as much as five (5) years. However, these penalties are only if you are convicted or driving under the influence and it is our objective to ensure this does not happen. It is important to remember you have options when facing a serious charge such as driving under the influence. Please call our office to talk about your case and the viable options you have when facing a DUI.

I cannot recommend David and his staff enough. He has represented me on a DUI and a speeding ticket. I felt ashamed when I was arrested for DUI but David and Janean never judged me and from the very first meeting, were caring and thoughtful. The results were excellent too, as the DUI was reduced to a far less serious offense with no jail and no license suspension. If you want to be taken care of look no further. If you want a lawyer who is knowledgeable and honest, look no further. If you simply want a sleazy sales pitch, look elsewhere.
