TO SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM... WE'RE NOT ONE OF MANY CHOICES.  WE ARE THE ONLY CHOICE.

You need someone with years of experience, and intimate knowledge of DUI statutes, fines and penalties.  We've been serving clients in all northern Utah criminal courts since 1987, with a central focus on DUI cases. 

If you have been charged with a DUI, contact us to discuss your case. As a part of your free consultation, you will learn about all of your legal options, defenses and how we will work to skillfully prepare your defense and successfully solve your new legal problem. 

 

A DUI Defense You Can Count On

Police officers frequently make mistakes, machines malfunction and technical errors occur. We uncover these mistakes and discrepancies and use them to cast reasonable doubt on your guilt. We will challenge every aspect of the prosecution's case, including:

  • The police officer's reason for the traffic stop
  • The officer's training on field sobriety tests
  • Probable cause for the arrest
  • Accuracy of the breathalyzer test
  • Accuracy of blood alcohol content (BAC) tests

We will prepare a strong defense strategy used to find technical errors or police mistakes or misconduct. This information is used in negotiations with the prosecutor or at trial. As a result of preparation and perseverance, we are often able to have DUI charges reduced or dismissed. However, when a conviction is unavoidable, we always seek alternatives to jail, such as alcohol treatment, house arrest, and other options including community service.

 

The Right Choice

 

  • I have been fighting for the rights of the accused, for over 25 years. I have dedicated my professional life to providing just that and will continue to do so on your behalf.
  • Consultation is free. Often I can answer your legal questions right on the phone. I will explain to you your rights and answer all of your questions.
  • My staff of legal professionals is dedicated to serving our clients' legal needs. Since you're the most important person in our office, we listen carefully to what you say.

What You're Up Against

The effects and punishments for a DUI and DUI Metabolite have increased with the passage of every Utah Legislative session until they can now significantly impact anyone's future and career. A second offense (and that includes a Reckless Driving Alcohol Related or Impaired Driving as a first or second offense) or a first offense with a blood alcohol level of .16 or higher, mandates formal probation, an ignition interlock device for the term of that probation, jail time, substantial fines, and extensive counseling. There are circumstances where a judge can waive some of these requirements, but only when they are stated for the record and only when they are stipulated to by prosecution and defense. A third offense within ten years can and almost always will be enhanced to felony status, which carries with it potential incarceration in the state prison for 0-5 years and up to a $5,000 fine.

The DUI statute refers not only to the use of alcohol and illegal drugs, but also to legal and prescribed pharmaceutical drugs where they have affected the ability to drive safely. Under the separate, but closely related, statute of driving with the metabolite of a controlled substance in your system you can be found guilty if you have in your system any illegal or legal drugs. It is a defense to this particular statute if you have a legal prescription for the medication, but a legal prescription is not a defense to a DUI if that drug, even if prescribed, has impaired your ability to safely operate a vehicle. This statute continues to increase the pressure on the legal system, as well as upon innocent citizens.

Once you have been charged with a DUI, the prosecuting authority aligns all of its considerable power and forces against you. Can you afford an attempt to trek through the maze which the legislature has created in this area without protection from an experienced guide? A DUI is clearly a tough and complex offense that can not only harm you immediately, but damage your long term reputation and employment possibilities. Because of this, you need the best defense for a tough offense.

With all of the potential consequences of a DUI conviction, including possible loss of license up to 36 months, in the case of a second refusal within ten years, a "Not a Drop Alcohol Restricted License" for up to a lifetime, jail or prison time, insurance increases, formal probation, and an ignition interlock device, you can't afford not to know what you're doing when it comes to being charged with a DUI. We have focused our practice on DUI defense since 1987 and have seen the Utah State Legislature continue to increase penalties and stigmatize the DUI laws even further each year. By focusing our work, legal knowledge, and creativity in this area for the past 25 years, we have achieved positive solutions to nearly all of the problems caused by DUI arrests.

There is light at the end of almost every tunnel. There are often good defenses to what may otherwise look like insurmountable evidence.  You will never know of these defenses unless you have someone with the experience and the work ethic to find and reveal them to the court or tryer of the fact.

Considering all of this, if it were me, I'd have to call me... Kelly Cardon, Attorney at Law.
