Colorado Springs DUI Lawyer Helping You Through Your DUI Case

We’ve all made mistakes. Many of us have thought at least once that we were in more control of our faculties than we actually were. Every day, people across the country make the mistake of driving after drinking. This can lead to serious consequences if you are arrested for doing so.

If you’ve been arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, you need an experienced DUI defense attorney to help you through your DUI case. Otherwise, you risk serious consequences, including probation and the possibility of jail time.

At Joyner Law, attorney John Joyner has devoted his career to defending the rights of individuals accused of a crime in the state of Colorado. If you or someone you care about has been arrested on DUI charges, contact Joyner Law to get the representation you need.

What Penalties Could I Face After Getting a DUI?

If you get a DUI, you could possibly be facing up to a year in jail, fines, many hours of community service, years of probation, license suspension, have an ignition interlock device installed into your vehicle, and large financial penalties.

And that’s if it’s your first DUI. If you’ve gotten a DUI in the past, you face stricter financial penalties, extended license suspension, and increasing amounts of mandatory jail time.

If you have been previously convicted of 3 or more DUI incidents, a 4th DUI becomes a felony in Colorado. You can be charged with a 4th offense DUI no matter how old your previous convictions are, and whether or not those priors were in Colorado. If convicted of a 4th DUI in Colorado, you will be required to do jail time or time in the department of corrections, regardless of how forgiving your judge may decide to be in other matters. A fourth DUI is punishable by 2 to 6 years in prison. You will also face mandatory parole, a driver’s license suspension, and hefty fines.

Do I Have a Strong Defense Against My DUI Charge?

Being arrested and charged with a DUI can be a surreal experience that’s difficult to recover from. One should not have to face the complexities of the criminal justice system while in such a state. A DUI criminal defense attorney will help you through the days ahead and build a defense that best serves the needs of your particular case. Joyner Law will investigate the circumstances of your arrest, including looking into how you were treated by arresting officers and what your blood alcohol level was at the time it was tested.

Field sobriety tests and breathalyzers can be inaccurate. Variances in high body temperatures and different human physiology could lead to results that differ from those the tests use as a standard, making the breath alcohol testing inaccurate.

Questions as to whether police had reasonable suspicion to stop the vehicle, if your blood was illegally obtained through an involuntary blood test, or any personal conditions which may lead to a false blood alcohol level result could also be explored.
