Trucker Defense:Most truckers through their thousands of miles of travel will at some point or another incur a traffic violation or similar infraction. This is almost inevitable and in most cases, can be settled without detriment to your record. We understand that as a trucker, your ability to drive under a clean license is important. This is why we go the extra mile to ensure that your case receives the proper attention necessary so that you can get back on the road again. Most people pulled over for a traffic offense or DUI related matter do not make a conscious effort to know their rights prior to their court appearance. It is absolutely imperative that you have a qualified attorney present during your arraignment so that the right decisions can be made concerning your case. In some cases, simply having an attorney present can mean the difference between you walking away or serving jail time. Three things you should never do if you receive a ticket: 1. NEVER PLEAD GUILTY TO THE CHARGE- It is not worth losing your CDL and paying years of higher insurance premiums because you simply wanted to avoid the cost of hiring a lawyer. The money you pay down the road will triple the cost of what you will pay by hiring a professional attorney that knows the ropes. Pleading guilty without consulting a lawyer about your case can lead to irrevocable circumstances that can cost you your livelihood. 2. NEVER LET A VIOLATION GO ON YOUR RECORD- As a commercial or private trucker, your life and career is made on the road. Having a poor driving record or bad conduct reports can easily put you out of a job. This is why it is so important to keep your record free of damaging violations. By enlisting the help of a qualified attorney, you afford yourself a fighting chance of keeping those infractions off of your record and out of your life. If you do eventually get convicted of your violation, we can help you get it amended. 3. NEVER TRUST YOUR CASE WITH ANYONE EXCEPT BARRY SANDS No doubt there is an endless list of attorneys located in your area that will claim to know everything about your charges and how they can help. Don't be so trustworthy without knowing their background. The Law offices of Barry Sands have been helping people just like you get back to their life without the confusion and uncertainty of defending themselves against serious criminal charges. Our job is to defend you and protect you against prosecution. DUI and Intoxication: Driving while under the influence and other drug intoxication charges are very serious and can damage your driving record for years to come if you are convicted. Even for a first offense, the penalties can be serious-including license suspension, fines of at least $1,300, mandatory attendance of DUI programs, and jail time. In addition, a DUI conviction stays on your DMV record for at least 7 years, and may result in higher insurance premiums. Furthermore, you may become ineligible for credit, and even lose your employment. Successfully representing a DUI case requires a high degree of skill, experience, and understanding of the state's DUI law. That's why it is crucial that you choose an attorney who knows the law…who has a proven record of successful DUI defense…and who is willing to go the distance for you. The Law offices of Barry Sands are experts in handling DUI and drug related charges and will represent you to the fullest while treating you with the highest degree of dignity and care.
