Q. Facing a Second DUI Charge after a previous offense reduced four and half years ago in WA State.

March 26, 2024

A: Yes you are in between a rock and a hard place because this last DUI is your second offense and the penalties are higher because of the first one. Please Please contact an experienced criminal defense attorney that does DUI law All the time. Not one that just does one or two cases here and there. It is not apparent that your 2nd DUI is in the State of WA but I assume it is. Talk to someone today because you need specific advise and help and not just general information. Hire someone now.

Q. In Washington State what is the least amount of time for a harassment charge or threat to kill and have previous violent

November 26, 2023

A: I'm sorry there isn't enough information for me or any attorney to give you direct answer. We would need to sit down and talk about all the needed information and background to see what range of time you are facing. It all depends on criminal history, what you are actually charged with now and how good the cases are against you. my number 509-750-9921 is my cell

Q. Had a DUI accident a 1yr ago, did a BAC test, and got charged with DUI and Vehicular Assault but haven't been convicted

A: You say that you have an attorney so ask that attorney what is happening because he/she will have access to all of the potential evidence. It sounds like there is a blood test that is being processed by the State Tox lab and that takes a long time sometimes so the State is waiting to see what the results are. Good Luck and talk to your attorney or hire a new one
