DUI/First Offenses

Birmingham, Alabama, DUI Defense Attorney

  • Are you facing DUI charges for the first time?
  • Are you concerned about losing your license?
  • Do you need aggressive representation from a seasoned criminal defense attorney?

Even the first offense and conviction of DUI is hardly a slap on the wrist. At the Eversole Law Firm in Birmingham, Alabama, we recognize the severity of a first offense drunk driving charge. The consequences relating to license suspension, driving records and increased insurance rates are severe and could last a lifetime.

Defending DUI First Offenses

At the Eversole Law Firm, we educate our clients on the consequences of a DUI and advocate for them in court. Establishing your defense involves a detail-oriented approach, examining all aspects of the events leading up to the arrest and the arrest itself. That involves seeking answers to various questions, including:

  • Was the initial stop justified?
  • Was the field sobriety test properly administered?
  • Was the Breathalyzer calibrated properly and did it receive necessary maintenance?
  • Was the arresting officer properly trained in the use of the Breathalyzer device?

Exploring Your Options

Do not let law enforcement or prosecutors take advantage of your first arrest and exploit your lack of knowledge. Immediately pleading guilty is not a wise choice nor is it a valid option as it could result in jail time. Regardless of the circumstances regarding your arrest, you have the right to an attorney to investigate your case and establish a strong defense. That is what we provide at our firm for those facing their first offense or multiple offenses.
