A DUI is one of the most difficult charges to appropriately defend because it can result in you losing your driver’s license, either for a short period of time or permanently, depending on how many DUI convictions you have on your record.  Because of this, it’s important to have the best DUI defense you can find.  Mr. Robert Helfend is one of the most knowledgeable and passionate DUI, Los Angeles criminal defense lawyers you will find.  He knows many people simply accept the DUI charge and take whatever punishment is handed out, but he also knows that in many cases, a qualified, aggressive lawyer can get that punishment reduced or may even be able to have the entire case dismissed.

It’s important to know that Mr. Helfend isn’t going to make you any promises he can’t keep.  He knows that DUI cases are often very difficult to win.  While some lawyers will tell you they can guarantee that you will not be convicted, Mr. Helfend knows it’s not that simple, and you shouldn’t believe anyone who says it is.  However, he has been defending those accused of DUI and other criminal matters since 1984, and he knows all the legal motions and tactics, to see to it that you are defended as you should be.

Drunk drivers are often treated just as harshly as major criminals because of the stigma associated with driving under the influence.  This often means that good people get caught up in the court system and are unfairly punished.  These are the cases that need someone like Mr. Helfend, someone dedicated to pursuing every avenue of defense and doing everything possible to challenge the evidence and testimony of the prosecution.
