Hillsboro DUI Attorney

Hillsboro, Oregon, is the fifth largest city in Washington County with over 91,611 people. Hillsboro is located in the Tualatin Valley on the west side of the Portland metropolitan area. Hillsboro is home to many high-technology companies, such as Intel, Yahoo, Epson and Oracle, making it the center of Oregon’s Silicon Forest.

Hillsboro is ranked 5th among Oregon’s largest cities behind Portland, Eugene, Salem and Gresham and slightly ahead of Beaverton, which is ranked 6th. This was an increase of 30.5 percent from 200o., which makes Hillsboro the fourth fastest-grown city in the state during the 2000s.

Hillsboro’s crime rate makes it safer than 34% of the cities in the United States, with most crime being property, not violent crime. This is a slight downward trend based on statistics by the Oregon Criminal Justice Commission. The Hillsboro Police take DUI arrests very seriously, one example is their Community Enhancement Team. This group is focused on education to help prevent incidents of criminal activity before they happen.

Hillsboro does not have its own Criminal Justice Court, so DUI (sometimes referred as DUII) crimes and other traffic crimes in Hillsboro are tried at Washington County Circuit Court complex located in Hillsboro at:

There are two Main Entrances – if the line to enter is long at the first entrance, you can use the other entrance located on the opposite side of the building:

145 NE 2nd Avenue OR 150 NE 1st Avenue
Hillsboro, OR 97124

Washington County Circuit Court facilities are separated by function. The courts that are most commonly used for Reynolds Defense Firm clients are the Main Courthouse and the Law Enforcement Center (LEC).

These buildings are secured facilities, and must be entered by the main doors. You will be expected to go through a metal detector when you enter the building.

Of course, you are smart enough and articulate enough to discuss the facts of your case, but DUII is a serious charge in Hillsboro along with serious consequences – if anything goes wrong in court, you end up in jail that day. The justice system is often illogical and seldom reasonable; you don’t want your best intentions to backfire if they could have been prevented by an attorney with experience in DUI law in Hillsboro. It is not the judge’s job or the prosecutor’s job to help you - the reality is that you are at a serious disadvantage when you show up in court without a lawyer; you’re telling them that you don’t take the matter seriously.
