Why You Need a DUI Defense Attorney
A DUI arrest in Oklahoma is serious business. It’s not just a simple traffic ticket that you can pay and forget about. When you’re arrested for DUI, it starts two separate legal processes:
- A criminal case that could lead to jail time, fines, and a permanent criminal record; and
- A case with the State that could take away your driver’s license.
Both of these proceedings can have long-lasting impacts on your life, affecting everything from your ability to drive, to your future employment opportunities, and personal relationships. That’s why it’s essential to have an experienced Oklahoma DUI defense attorney on your side as soon as possible.
One of the most important things to understand is the deadlines for taking action to save your Drivers License, Notice will be sent to by Sok to your last known address. Save the Notice and the envelope as you only have 40 days the date of the notice to file an appeal of the revocation to the District Court in the County of your arrest. This requires an attorney to help with that process. If you miss this deadline, your license will be automatically suspended. This is just one example of why it’s important to act fast and get legal help right away.
