Don’t face a DUI charge without solid legal advice. Any criminal conviction can have a significant and lasting impact on your life. Apart from fines and jail time, conviction includes suspension of your driving privileges, travel restrictions, and more.

By reaching out to competent legal counsel right away, you may be able to shorten the length of your ordeal and minimize the negative consequences.

FAQ about DUI cases in Fairview, Oregon:

Many folks who have not been arrested before wonder, “What is an Arraignment?” The court date that appears on your citation and/or your release agreement is a court date called arraignment. Arraignment is the initial appearance in an Oregon criminal case. It is important to understand that your case is not expected to be resolved at this hearing, and the arresting officer is not going to be there. Rather, this is where you get checked in to the court system and future court dates are scheduled. Arraignment can happen anywhere from one day to one month from the date of your arrest, depending on the arresting agency and other factors. If at all possible you will be well-served by seeking legal representation before this initial court date.
