Being arrested is a traumatic experience, so it is only human to want to avoid dealing with the problem. Unfortunately, a DUI can lead to serious complications for you and your family, so it requires immediate attention. Important consequences for your driving privileges, future employment, and even your ability to travel can be impacted by a DUI. It is not a good idea to go it alone through this process.

Our stellar 8-attorney team includes former prosecutors, judges, and defense attorneys. These contrasting perspectives benefit every case we handle in our team-based approach. Also important is the fact that our team regularly practices in the Clatsop County Courts, giving them an important advantage over a lawyer that drives all over the state.

FAQ about DUI cases in Seaside, Oregon:

A common question we hear from people after they have been arrested for the first time is, “What is an Arraignment?” The initial court date listed on your citation or release agreement is your Arraignment. This is typically your first appearance in court in an Oregon criminal case. Arraignment is not the same as a trial date or a plea hearing, and your case is not expected to be resolved at this first appearance. Rather, this is the initial step in the process, where you are checked into the court system and future court dates will be scheduled. How soon Arraignment comes up varies based on which court you are scheduled to appear in, but it is typically a few weeks after your arrest, giving you time to seek out legal counsel. This Arraignment process is going to be smoother and less stressful if you have retained an attorney in advance, as they will have prepared you for anything that might happen.

About Seaside, Oregon:

Because many of our clients are under court-imposed restrictions on intoxicant use, we make a point to share non-alcohol-centric events and activities as another way to help them through this transition. Here are just a couple of ideas to get you started in the Seaside area:

Hike Saddle Mountain

Since you’re familiar with Seaside, we’re not going to tell you to go to the beach. Seriously though, spend some time at the beach! Then, once you’ve soaked up that salty sea-level scene and are ready for something different, head up to Saddle Mountain to get yourself a higher perspective. This popular coasty hike will take you up a 2.5 mile trail to a 3,200 foot vantage at the summit, overlooking the rolling coast range and a good chunk of the Oregon coastline. Depending on the time of year, you might also be treated to a spectacular wildflower display. Enjoy!

Play at Funland Arcade

If you don’t have kids in your life, perhaps you haven’t stepped foot in Funland Arcade in 15 years. Well, we assure you it’s fun for the young at heart as well! Perhaps you’ll find your favorite vintage video game where you can embrace your inner child for some retro gaming, or you can bring a date for some ice-breaking fun with the bumper cars. Of course, if you do have kids, you’re probably headed there anyway, so this is just an invitation to enjoy the noise and chaos that an afternoon spent at Funland is sure to bring.
