Law Office of Blackie Burak

You have been arrested and charged with DUI or DWI and your future is uncertain.  With the possibility of jail time, loss of driving privileges, and steep fines, you can't afford to gamble on an inexperienced lawyer.  At The Law Office of Blackie Burak, you can feel confident that you will receive aggressive, high quality representation from an honest and experienced professional.

For over thirty years, I have fought for the rights of my clients in drunk driving and criminal proceedings.  While I have gained valuable skills in the criminal law arena, my talents are needed most to represent clients who face drunk driving charges.  Few practicing attorneys have such an extensive and focussed career.  I have an intimate knowledge of the law and the legal system.  In addition to hundreds of DUI and DWI jury trials, I have appeared with clients in thousands of DMV hearings.  I practice all over Central and Northern California and have developed a reputation for an aggressive defense and a high rate of success.

While results are important to my clients, they also appreciate the fact that I offer frank and straightforward advice.   Occasionally, my clients face legal dilemmas that I feel they can handle without retaining a lawyer.  I am the first to help such individuals save money by suggesting that they represent themselves.  Because I have experience in a wide variety of drunk driving cases, I am able to anticipate where such a case is headed and give the client a sense of what to expect.  I take the time to keep all my clients informed as to their options and the consequences and I keep them updated as to the status of their case.
