How Much Will It Cost?

Our lawyers' fees for representing clients accused of DUI offenses are affordable and very competitive. Unlike some DUI lawyers, we generate our own leads, deal directly with clients and do not inflict expensive referral fees or advertising costs on clients.

Generally, you will be offered an attractive flat attorney fee for dealing with both the DMV and Court proceedings. However, as different cases present different problems and challenges, it is necessary that you talk to one of our attorneys to get an actual price quote, based on your individual situation and needs. (You should be skeptical of DUI web sites that offer a laundry list of prices before you have even talked to a lawyer.)

Clients can generally pay the attorney fee by check, in one or more payments, or by using any major credit card.

Accordingly, we offer you a free initial consultation with an experienced attorney, who will discuss your situation with you in confidence, present you with the best options for your case, and answer any questions you may have. There is no obligation.
