Why Hire A DUI Attorney? 

You hire a DUI Attorney for one simple reason: you cannot afford not to.  The consequences of a DUI conviction are severe and will remain with you for the rest of your life.  You must try everything within your resources to avoid these consequences. Contact us for a Free Initial Consultation.

A criminal conviction for DUI in Iowa is permanent.  It stays on your criminal record for the rest of your life.  There is no method or procedure in the state of Iowa to expunge or clear a conviction for DUI.

The purpose of hiring a DUI lawyer is to ensure that everything legally possible is done to avoid a conviction and license suspension following your arrest. 

A good DUI lawyer fights first with a guilty plea being the furthest thing from their mind.  Guilty pleas should always be the last resort.  A lawyer that talks about pleading guilty even before the facts are fully developed and the evidence is scrutinized is not a DUI Attorney. A DUI attorney is knowledgeable, confident, aggressive, and 100% in your corner with his only concern being a successful resolution of a client’s case.

Only a qualified, well-trained and experienced DUI lawyer will know how to maximize the possibility of avoiding the permanent, negative life consequences that result from a conviction.  While an attorney cannot change the facts of a case, the facts can always be developed in a way that maximizes the potential for a positive resolution (acquittal at trial (not guilty verdict), dismissed charges, substantially reduced charges).  A superior knowledge of the science and intricacies of the laws allows a good DUI lawyer to take advantage of even the smallest mistake by an officer or inconsistency with the science associated with drunk driving prosecutions.  In the field of law, as in our everyday lives, knowledge is power.  Superior knowledge creates superior results.

That is why you hire a DUI attorney.

free initial consultation

If you or someone you care about has been arrested for drunk driving or an intoxication related offense, remember that an arrest is not a conviction; there are many, many reasons why an OWI charge may be wrong. You need to know your rights in an OWI charge. For example, if you believe that you were solber, that very well may be the case; field sobriety tests are inaccurate and breathalyzers can malfunction.

"There are many reasons for improper drunk driving arrests. We know, we find them all the time." GRL Attorneys
