DUI Defense

A DUI charge can move fast. License suspension, court dates and pressure to accept a plea can all happen before you fully understand what you are facing. The decisions you make early in this process can affect your driving privileges, your record and your future.

What you may be dealing with

You may be unsure whether the stop, the field sobriety tests or the chemical test were handled properly. You may be facing your first charge or a repeat offense with more serious consequences. Either way, you need to understand your rights before making any decisions.

How we help

Byars, Darby & Damas reviews every aspect of your DUI case, from the reason for the stop to how evidence was collected and handled. We look for procedural errors, constitutional violations and weaknesses in the prosecution's case. Our goal is to give you a clear picture of your options and pursue the best available outcome.

DUI defense representation can include

• Reviewing the legality of the traffic stop and arrest
• Challenging field sobriety and chemical test results
• Evaluating breathalyzer calibration and testing procedures
• Negotiating for reduced charges or alternative sentencing
• Representing you at license hearings and in court

Why timing matters

License suspension deadlines and evidence preservation windows move quickly after a DUI arrest. Getting legal guidance as soon as possible protects your ability to challenge the charge and keep your options open.

A client-focused approach

Every DUI case is different. A first offense handled well can look very different from one that is not. We take the time to understand your specific facts and build a defense strategy focused on your situation, not a generic response.
