Dui Lawyers Range in Skill

As a DUI attorney, my job ranges from the mundane to the outright shocking. Some days are regular days at the office, others are spectacular days spent in front of juries or at police stations interviewing cops.

As DUI law becomes more and more strict throughout the nation, there are more and more attorneys who, because they see it as a lucrative opportunity, call themselves DUI attorneys. Having been at this now for nearly a decade, I have witnessed a range of practitioners. There are those who are so skilled at what they do that their craft or art borders on the sublime. There are others who couldn't even sell used cars, let alone advocate for an unpopular client in an unpopular cause.

With the advent of the internet, there is so much misinformation in regards to DUI lawyers. My first suggestion to anybody starting the long and painful process of a DUI charge is to read as much as you can on the subject. There are many good websites out there. I also highly recommend buying a book written by Larry Taylor, a top-notch DUI attorney in California. It is written for lawyers, but if you, as a layperson facing a DUI charge, read and understand it, you will be able to spot the swindler, and hire the wizard.
