San Diego 4th DUI Defense Attorney

Hire a Seasoned San Diego DUI Lawyer who Cares!

In California, a DUI offense can be considered a felony in a variety of ways. Typically, a DUI will be considered a felony if it was a fourth DUI offense (misdemeanor non-injury) within a ten-year period (violation date to violation date). A DUI will also be considered a felony if there was an accident that caused injury to some other person or persons. The most significant aspect of a felony charge is that one will face the possibility of being sentenced to serve time in a California State Prison as opposed to their local jail.

Get Aggressive Defense After a 4th DUI Conviction

In a felony DUI case an attorney’s experience and the attorney/client advance preparation are vital factors for the success of the case. These aspects can make the difference between a sentence to State Prison and a custodial alternative such as house arrest or work furlough. Attorney De Yoe has over thirty years of experience guiding individuals toward their best options. He can guide you through the early stages of the process, up to the time of sentencing.

For Example: In a San Diego Superior Court Felony DUI case (by way of it being a fourth offense within ten years) a client had been weaving badly on the freeway. He was stopped by the CHP, arrested, and ended up blowing a .19% BAC. Due to the guidance provided by Attorney De Yoe, combined with substantial undertakings on the part of the client, the Prosecutor had No Objection to a grant of Probation (taking State Prison out of the picture) and having the client undertake a program that included wearing an ankle bracelet to detect both physical location and alcohol consumption.

This program not only helped the people of the State of California have a safer member of the community, it helped that individual client turn his life completely around for the better. These can be win-win-win cases for all concerned and are tremendously satisfying for all to be a part of.
