Principled Legal Representation

Unlike many other Virginia drunk driving defense lawyers, Mr. Hicks does not take on clients who have been previously convicted of drunk driving unless they consent to treatment. Although people can make mistakes, repeated arrests for drunk driving are often symptomatic of a larger pattern of reckless behavior that can have real-life consequences for others. It is a good move for chronic drunk drivers to seek help before their actions lead to tragedy for themselves or for others.

Furthermore, he is knowledgeable about federal law and can be a valuable ally for drivers who are arrested for DUI on federal territory such as the George Washington Memorial Parkway.

Even though judges in federal DUI cases do not have the authority to suspend or revoke a driver’s license, the court will usually make probation conditional on the defendant’s right to drive being restricted or limited to driving to work, etc. Virginia’s DMV will suspend or restrict the defendant’s driver’s license if he or she is convicted of DUI in federal court.

You Don’t Need To Take A Breathalyzer Test To Be Arrested

There are many reasons why an individual can be arrested for drunk driving besides simply blowing a breathalyzer test. A police officer doesn’t need to know your BAC to make an arrest; in fact, any number of actions — including slurring speech, failing a sobriety test or engaging in reckless driving — can serve as probable cause and lead to DUI charges. In any case, once you have been charged, you cannot talk your way out of being prosecuted. Remember that anything you say can and usually will be used against you in court. Do not try to explain yourself or make excuses.
