Experienced DUI Attorneys in Chino

Will I Lose My License?

California DUI (DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE) laws are very serious. The penalty for these charges can carry jail time, heavy fines and license restrictions, suspensions or revocations. The laws are more severe if this is a second or third time DUI or if the DUI involved an accident causing injuries or death, which would be a felony.

If you are arrested for a DUI, your first step is hiring an experienced DUI criminal defense trial attorney immediately to protect and defend your rights. Here’s how the Madrid Law Firm can help you:

  1. We prepare all cases as if we are going to trial. The advantage is that we examine and prepare all aspects of the case and have it ready to present to a jury, which enables us to effectively address all issues with the prosecuting attorney long before the case is ever set for trial. If the district attorney refuses to acknowledge your defenses, we will then be ready to proceed to trial.
  2. To protect your Drivers’ License, the Madrid Law Firm will request a hearing with the DMV within ten (10) days following your arrest. If you do not make this request within this time period, you waive your rights to this DMV hearing, which will result in an automatic license suspension.
  3. At the DMV hearing, the Madrid Law Firm lawyers examine whether the peace officer had reasonable cause to believe you were driving a motor vehicle in violation of California Vehicle Code §§23140, 23152 or 23153, whether you were lawfully arrested and whether you were driving under the influence of alcohol when you had a .08% or more by weight of alcohol in your blood. The testimony adduced at this hearing can aid in your defense of the DUI charge in the criminal court.
  4. The Madrid Law Firm lawyers will make all court appearances on your behalf so that you won’t have to waste time going back and forth to court or lose time from work with the exception of felony matters, which require your appearance.
  5. The Madrid Law Firm lawyers will investigate all aspects of your case, including, but limited to, the stop, detention and arrest, field sobriety tests, the PAS tests and chemical tests administered and corresponding results.
  6. The Madrid Law Firm lawyers will file pretrial motions, such as discovery, suppression and any other motions necessary to protect your statutory and constitutional rights.
  7. If the matter proceeds to trial, you will have the benefit of a combined 60+ years of experience in your corner.
  8. Most of all, you speak and deal with the Madrid Law Firm lawyers and not their support staff. You will truly enjoy and appreciate an attorney/client relationship.

  • “I never got the feeling I was bugging her-- and that matters when determining your attorney!”
    This review is for Erica at Madrid Law Firm. Without getting too into my DUI case, I had a special circumstance conviction. She was able to get me the best possible deal from the DA. I truly believe that! Felony dropped to a misdemeanor, bail amount decreased. She was very informative and responded in a timely matter. It was never difficult to reach her and she took the time to explain all my questions. I never got the feeling I was bugging her-- and that matters when determining your attorney! She knows what she is doing, took care of all the DMV matters for me. I highly recommend her, very trustworthy!!

    If I could give more stars I would! Working with Edward, Erica and their team was an amazing experience. They went above and beyond and were extremely aggressive with my case at a cost that was significantly lower than I expected. I was extremely blessed to have had Edward and Erica by my side through the toughest battle of my life. I highly recommend this office!
