For information on DUI attorneys' fees, read " What will it cost to retain a DUI lawyer to represent me? For further information concerning your DUI case, please review the drop-down navigation menu at the top of this page, where you will find such important topics as: DUI laws and penalties, license suspension hearings, sobriety checkpoints, police procedures (field sobriety tests, etc.), accuracy of breathalyzers, how to calculate your blood alcohol, driving under the influence of drugs or marijuana, and how to find a good DUI attorney.
PLEASE NOTE: Your attorney must call the California DMV Driver Safety Office in the City of Orange within 10 calendar days of the arrest to demand an administrative hearing to contest the license suspension. If this is not done by the 10th day, your right to a hearing will be forfeited and your drivers license will automatically be suspended 30 days after the arrest. If you are unable to retain a DUI defense attorney before the 10th day, you should call the DSO yourself to schedule the hearing; your attorney can later change the hearing date if necessary. You will need to provide the DSO with information from your notice of suspension and citation (arresting officers name, serial number, etc.). The Orange County Driver Safety Office is located at 790 The City Drive in Orange; the phone number is (714) 703-2511.
