Similarly, if the police arrest you for allegedly driving under the influence, you need a DUI lawyer who understands the law. As a free consultation criminal defense attorney, Lisa A. Kopelman will learn about your case and develop a defense suited to your circumstances. If you are facing DUI or drug charges and need defense, reach out to a lawyer now.

Put Your Best Foot Forward & Work with a DUI Lawyer
Driving under the influence is a serious offense. When the state accuses you of DUI, you risk losing your license, spending time in jail, and paying a substantial fine. You must pursue every avenue of defense, and without a competent DUI lawyer, that’s not possible. Criminal defense attorney Lisa A. Kopelman knows the intricacies of the law due to her direct experience in the California court systems. She knows what kind of defense stands up to a prosecutor’s scrutiny, and what kind falls apart.
Drug crime accusations can bring with them similarly heavy consequences. As a DUI lawyer, we will find the best route to freedom from the charges against you. Prosecutors, interested in delivering convictions, use the state’s considerable resources to bear down on every alleged criminal. Let a lawyer protect you from the strength of the state and give you a fighting chance to resist serious drug or DUI-related charges.
