What Can a Felony DUI Defense Attorney Do for You?

When facing felony DUI charges, the defense strategy you choose can significantly impact the outcome of your case. At The Law Office of David E.

Proving Lack of Intent: Demonstrating that you did not intend to drive or were not in control of the vehicle can be a strong defense.
