We Know The Stakes Are Raised For Commercial Drivers

The potential loss, even temporary, of your driver's license, can have serious consequences on your ability to function day-to-day. But no one feels that loss more viscerally than our clients who drive a car or truck for a living. If you are a commercial driver charged with a DUI, losing that license is akin to a surgeon losing his license to practice medicine. It is your life's blood, and at the Eversole Law Firm in Birmingham, Alabama, we will fight to protect your rights and protect your career with a vigorous defense mounted by high-caliber attorneys who have years of experience focusing on occupational DUI representation.

To All Commercial Drivers Facing a DUI, Steven Says...

The founder of our firm, Steven D. Eversole, has a few words of wisdom he would like to share with anyone facing a commercial or occupational DUI charge:

DO NOT allow anyone to pressure you into pleading guilty. If you are convicted, you will see your insurance rates go through the roof and your chances of procuring future employment as a commercial driver nosedive.

DO NOT settle for a criminal defense team that doesn't have substantial background in drunk driving cases. The benefit of our team at the Eversole Law Firm is that, with our knowledge and experience, we operate almost like a forensics unit; by that we mean, we dissect every element of the actual event of the arrest and look for signs of where and when your rights might have been violated. Perhaps the initial stop was unjustified. Perhaps the field sobriety or breath tests weren't properly administered.

DO NOT lose hope. We have had clients in similar situations who are now free to drive and happily continue their careers. We've represented DUI cases ranging from first-time offenders to multiple/felony offenders, and there is no such thing as an open-and-shut case for the prosecution. GETTING BACK YOUR LICENSE IS PARAMOUNT. Whether you refused to take the Breath Test and thus automatically lost your license for 90 days, or blew a .08 or above on the test, we have successfully won back many clients' freedom to drive.
