We Defend DUII Charges in the Entire State of Oregon

If you have been arrested in the State of Oregon for Driving Under the influence of Intoxicants, you are facing a mandatory license suspension of at least one year and fines, fees and surcharges that will reach into the thousands of dollars. Not to mention your insurance company. When they discover the conviction, you can look forward to thousands of dollars of surcharges over 3 years. If your license is suspended, unlike other states, Oregon does not provide for an immediate restricted driver’s license. It does not matter if you need to drive for work, how essential the destination is, or that you need to drive for your family. If the DMV suspends the earliest you can get a work permit is 30 days. If the court suspends, if could be longer.

For these reasons, it is important that the attorney that you hire is an experienced Oregon DUI attorney who is aggressive, innovative, and knowledgable. You have come to the right place.
