Don't Fight Your Charges Alone!
Fighting criminal charges is difficult. It's crucial to find legal representation of the highest caliber when you are facing criminal accusations.

I have helped hundreds of clients, who have faced both non-violent and violent charges, such as manslaughter, traffic offenses, and drug crimes.

I fought for your freedom as a member of the US Army and US Army Reserves, and I will fight for your freedom as your criminal defense attorney.
Excellent Legal Representation in Venice
Facing any type of criminal charge is a legally dangerous situation. You need effective and aggressive legal representation so that you have the best chance of being acquitted. If you are convicted of a crime, you may be facing penalties that last for years or even decades, long after prison time has been served. If you are facing a DUI charge, you stand to lose your driver's license, regardless of whether or not you serve jail time. If you are convicted of your first DUI, you face license suspension for up to a year, in a first time misdemeanor case.
Some serious felony DUI cases will mean license revocation, permanently. You could also have to install and maintain an extremely costly ignition interlock device in order to drive for up to 6 months. The penalties increase in severity for your subsequent convictions, each involving a longer driver's license suspension (or revocation) and longer mandatory ignition interlock device installation. These convictions are expensive to deal with and could radically alter your life. Contact my firm, The Law Office of Wyndel G. Darville, PLLC, for a lawyer you can count on to be professional, insightful and ready to fight hard for you.
