Sacramento DUI Lawyer
Experienced DUI Defense in Sacramento County
As in the rest of the U.S., the blood alcohol content (BAC) limit in California is 0.08%. Those under age 21 are considered drunk at 0.02% and can face strict penalties. When a driver has a BAC of 0.16, he or she can face enhanced penalties under an aggravated DUI charge.
What sets California apart, is that our state has some of the strictest DUI laws in the nation when it comes to penalties.
If you’ve been arrested for a DUI, the time to act is now. From the day you’re arrested, you have only 10 days to request a DMV hearing, which should be done by your attorney. Hiring a Sacramento DUI lawyer early in the process can also be beneficial in starting your case off on the right foot.
