DUI Defense

A DUI charge can change your life — but it doesn't have to define it. Our experienced attorneys will fight to protect your license, your freedom, and your future.

⚠️ TIME IS CRITICAL: You only have 7 days to request a DMV hearing to save your license. Contact us immediately.

Do Not Underestimate a DUI Charge

A DUI arrest is not to be taken lightly. A DUI conviction may seriously affect your livelihood and even your ability to visit foreign countries like Canada.

If you have recently been charged with a DUI and/or refusal to submit to a breath test, you should immediately contact an attorney to discuss your particular situation. There are several DUI defense attorneys practicing on the Kenai Peninsula.

Keep this in mind: Not all attorneys are created equal. For your sake, make sure you speak to a DUI attorney with extensive experience and familiarity with Alaska's DUI laws. You get one chance to maximize your chances at obtaining a suitable outcome and minimizing economic loss; don't waste it on a clever Yellow Page ad.

How We Fight Your DUI Charge

A worthwhile DUI defense attorney will be able to review your particular situation and assess your chances at:

🔍

Challenging the Stop

Was the traffic stop legal? We investigate whether your constitutional rights were violated.

Dismissal of Charges

Procedural errors and rights violations can result in complete dismissal of your case.

⬇️

Negotiate to Reckless Driving

A reckless driving charge carries far fewer penalties than a DUI conviction.

⚖️

Not Guilty Verdict at Trial

If needed, we're prepared to fight your case before a jury.

Challenging Breath & Blood Tests

Breathalyzer and blood test results are not infallible. Our attorneys know how to challenge:

  • Calibration and maintenance records of the testing device
  • Proper administration of field sobriety tests
  • Chain of custody for blood samples
  • Training and certification of the administering officer
  • Medical conditions that can affect test results
  • Rising blood alcohol levels (you may not have been over the limit while driving)

Second & Third DUI Offenses

Penalties increase dramatically with repeat offenses. A second DUI within 15 years can result in:

  • • Minimum 20 days jail (up to 1 year)
  • • Minimum $3,000 fine (up to $10,000)
  • • License revocation for 1 year
  • • Ignition interlock device required

If you're facing a second or third DUI charge, the stakes are even higher. Contact us immediately.
