Arizona has the toughest DUI laws in the country. The State will try to put you in jail for up to six months, take away your license, make you pay thousands of dollars in fines, go through alcohol classes, and put an alcohol sensor on your car.
Do not attempt to fight the State yourself. You need a lawyer with knowledge and experience. Michael A. Burkhart can beat a DUI charge and save you thousands of dollars in fines.
If you are arrested for DUI and you think that you might have had too much to drink: DO NOT give the police evidence by agreeing to do field sobriety tests. DO NOT admit to drinking. It is best to respectfully request the opportunity to speak with an attorney before you do anything for the police. Remember, the police are there to arrest you, not help you.
