Wolf, Baldwin & Associates, P.C.
Drunk driving is unfortunately one of the most frequent crimes with which ordinary folks are charged. It only takes a few drinks to seriously impair your ability to drive, and to cause you to fail a field sobriety test and be charged with DUI (Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol or Drugs). If you are found guilty of DUI in PA, you can be forced to pay hefty fines, go to jail, and lose your drivers license.
The attorneys at Wolf, Baldwin & Associates know what to look for in Pennsylvania DUI cases. We can advise you whether there is any legal DUI defense to be made, which can potentially save you embarassment, and, more importantly, jail time, fines, your drivers license, and even your job. We can advise you about Pennsylvania's Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition (ARD) program, which may allow you to avoid jail time and avoid having a criminal record for drunk driving . The ARD program allows you to expunge your criminal record upon successful completion of the program, and can cut down on the time of any license suspension. Because DUI charges are so serious, we understand the severity of your situation, and we want to make sure that you know your Pennsylvania DUI rights, and that you receive every safeguard the law provides.
The new Pennsylvania DUI law will present challenges to defense lawyers, prosecutors, and courts. The new law, found at 75 Pa.C.S.A. § 3802, is technically now called Driving After Imbibing (DAI). The new PA drunk driving law contains sweeping changes to existing DUI law, and will require careful examination over the next few years as the trial courts struggle with its meaning, and as our appellate courts give direction to the trial courts and Pennsylvania DUI lawyers.
