DUI convictions result in mandatory minimum jail or home detention time as well as driver license suspensions.

The Department of Licensing may also suspend your driver’s license before even going to a single court hearing.
Joe Wickersham will navigate you through the complicated twists and turns of a DUI case that may go through several court hearings. A person charged with a criminal case such as DUI has a right to file for a change of judge. This right is extremely important to be exercised promptly and timely if needed or a case can suddenly take a dramatic turn for the worse in the wrong hands. Because of Joe’s extensive experience with the courts, he is familiar with the local courts and judges and can help advise you on the issue as to whether or not a change of judge is needed. It seems that most DUI attorneys are either unwilling or afraid to take this step choosing to simply let their clients take their chances often with grave results.
If you have a DUI or other criminal charge, call Joe Wickersham today. Court hearings can come up almost immediately and you need to be ready with experienced and successful legal representation. Department of Licensing hearing requests for driver’s license suspensions must be turned in within thirty days from the date of arrest.
