EL DORADO COUNTY DUI LAWYER

Michael Rehm provides representation for the accused in El Dorado County. Practice areas include DUI Defense, Criminal Defense and Traffic Ticket Defense. Placerville, the county seat, has a long established reputation as conservative area, earning the nickname Old Hangtown in the gold rush era. Today, in my experience, it is reasonable jurisdiction where dispositions favorable to the defendant are possible. But it all starts with a strong defense. If you have been arrested or cited in El Dorado County you will have court at one the following locations:

495 Main Street Placerville, CA 95667 Departments 1 and 2

2850 Fairlane Court Placerville, CA 95667 Department 7

1354 Johnson Blvd. South Lake Tahoe 96150 Departments 3 and 4

In the context of a DUI, an arrest starts two separate actions. The first action is by the California DMV. The DMV will proceed with suspending the individual’s driver’s license 30 days from the date of the arrest. In order to avoid this result, the first step is to set an Administrative Per Se Hearing with the DMV. You only have 10 days from the date of the arrest to set up this hearing. Having an experienced DUI Attorney represent you at the DMV hearing is crucial to maintaining your driver’s license privilege.

The second action is in Court. Generally, on misdemeanor DUI cases, the court date will be anywhere from 30-45 days from the date of the arrest. If the DMV hearing was set up accordingly, your Placerville DUI Lawyer should already be in possession of the police report and ready to execute whatever the plan of attack may be. In misdemeanor DUI cases in El Dorado County, your attorney can appear in court for you on the first court date.

No matter what location or department you are assigned to appear in, El Dorado County DUI Lawyer Michael Rehm has been there and can provide the strong defense that is necessary when you are charged with a crime. For a free, confidential consultation contact Michael Rehm at (530) 410-6474.
