California DMV Proceedings after an DUI Arrest
If you are looking for a California DUI defense attorney, chances are you have already been arrested for a California DUI or other drunk driving offense. Now you must figure out how to handle the DUI case in a court of law. When you are arrested for DUI in California, the officer usually takes your drivers license and issues you a temporary license that is only good for 30 days. This is where the California DMV proceedings begin. You only have 10 days to contest the suspension of your drivers license. It is important to hire an experienced DUI defense lawyer, such as Mr. Kavinoky, who knows how to navigate these important dates and DMV proceedings.
