California DUI Basics
Driving Under the Influence also referred to as a DUI, is a criminal charge pursuant to Vehicle Code Section 23152(a) and is a misdemeanor. To be convicted of this charge, the District Attorney must show that you operated a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs. A conviction for a first DUI can carry a penalty of six months jail, heavy court fines, probation, as well as an order that you participate in an alcohol treatment program. In addition to criminal penalties, the Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) will suspend your driver’s license and your car insurance will be negatively impacted. Many individuals charged with a DUI are also charged with violating Vehicle Code Section 23152(b), Driving with Excessive BAC. A charge under 23152(b) requires that you have a BAC of .08 or greater and carries greater penalties than a conviction under Section 23152(a).
When you are pulled over for a suspected DUI, the police officer takes your driver’s license and you are given a temporary license which will expire within 30 days automatically and an Order of Suspension of your Driver’s License. Though, you have 10 days from the date the police confiscated your license to request a DMV Administrative Review of the suspension. If you do not make the request for hearing within 10 days, your driver’s license will automatically be suspended at the end of the 30 days. This administrative review hearing allows you the opportunity to show that the suspension was not justified. The DMV Administrative Review is independent from any court proceeding. You may be represented by an attorney at the DMV Administrative Review but you will only have an attorney fighting for you at this hearing if you hire an attorney. No attorney will be provided for you to defend your case.
An arrest for DUI should be handled immediately by an attorney. You do not have time to wait. You have only 10 days from your arrest to request a DMV Administrative Review of your driver’s license suspension. If you fail to make this request, your license will be suspended. On top of the DMV process, you also will need a lawyer to fight the court case. Can you imagine how your life will change if your driver’s license is suspended and you have to go to jail? Let our attorneys develop a sound legal strategy for your DUI case.

An excellent and professional consultation followed by a successful win of my case.
Thank you Bobby. You guys are top notch. Kept me informed on everything that was going on with my case and I didn’t have to show up in court once. Got my case dismissed, now I can move on. I would recommend this law firm to anyone that wants a fair shake.
I had a difficult case that I was trying to fight from outside the state it was turned down twice. Once by the DA, and the second time by the judge, they continued to fight for me, and got the results I was looking for. They really do care about their clients and will not stop fighting till they get you the results you want.
I couldn’t be happier with the service we received. From the very beginning I could tell that these lawyers knew a lot about DUI cases and throughout our court days they went above and beyond to make sure we were prepared for whatever might come our way. They definitely prepare you for the worst but get you the best. They covered every single base and we got an amazing outcome. I would recommend them any day.
I want to thank Bobby and the entire staff. They recalled my warrant and got my case dismissed in no time. They answered my concerns and took me step by step in the process. I didn’t even have to appear in court. They represented me and took care of my case all the way. Thank you!!!
I would like to thank Mr. Shamuilian for helping me to get a good result for my case. They are very reliable people that kept things very professional. I recommend them strongly, they will help you tremendously. I was very lucky that I had the opportunity to work with such highly skilled people. You won’t regret hiring them, thanks again.
Good attorneys are hard to find! Bobby Shamuilian actually represented me with my best interest at heart. He gave it his all and because of that my case is being dismissed today. This firm is most definitely the best one to have if you need a criminal attorney. God forbid I ever need a criminal defense attorney, I would not even consider anyone else to represent me. Absolutely an amazing attorney!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Everyone in the office was helpful and professional. There was never a time when I thought they weren’t going to be there when we needed them. Their reputation and professionalism was the primary factor for using this law firm. Boy, were we impressed with all of the work they put into our case. Thank you to everyone in the office for always making us feel like we were your only clients!
I found myself facing a DUI and scared to death. From the very start of the initial consultation, Attorney Bobby Shamuilian put me at ease. They handled my DMV Hearing and the court proceeding and truly fought for me. They were always attentive to my phone calls and emails, keeping me informed. They were able to get me a reduced charged so that I do not have a DUI on my record. I am so thankful to have retained them for my case.
Got my case dropped from a felony to 2 misdemeanors to having everything dismissed. Justice has been served, nothing more I could ask for! Many thanks Bobby!
I am a person who believes in giving credit where credit is due and I absolutely need to say that Bobby is amazing. The thing that stood out about him initially was that he was actually empathetic and showed compassion about what we were going through… I would absolutely 150% recommend Bobby to any of my friends and family – he is such a genuine guy and knows how to do his job, and do it well.
Bobby Shamuilian got me 1.4 million dollars…just kidding:) He did get my reckless driving traffic violation dismissed without me having to go to court though. The staff at My Rights Law Group are very capable lovely beings… Thank you Bobby can’t tell you how much it means to me man…
