LYNDEN DUI ATTORNEY

Of course, the biggest worry for many DUI defendants is losing your license. There are two ways this can happen in Lynden. DUI defense attorneys will walk you through both of them: first, you need to request a hearing from the Washington Department of Licensing so they don't suspend your license just for being charged with a DUI. This hearing needs to be requested quickly and we can make sure you don't miss any deadlines. Secondly, a conviction of DUI in Lynden may result in a license suspension with the Department of Licensing. We will work closely with you to build the strongest case possible for keeping your license. We can help you through this process step by step.

An arrest for DUI in Lynden will change your life.  Regardless of the outcome you will be required to appear in court and hire an attorney.  Because of the serious nature of the offense and the harsh penalties that are possible, you deserve and must demand the very best criminal defense available in Whatcom County.  Our DUI defense attorneys understand Washington DUI law inside and out and will assist you throughout the process while fighting hard to achieve the very best results possible.  Do not fight alone, retain the very best legal assistance you can.

​​Your first job following your arrest for a crime and prior to court is to educate yourself about the process.  This starts with meeting with a DUI lawyer.   Our Lynden, Washington attorneys are prepared to talk to you at any time and meet with you prior to your court date.  We understand you have many questions about court, your driver's license and what options you may have to avoid a DUI conviction.  It won't be easy but you will do far better with the help of an experienced Whatcom County criminal defense attorney than you will without one.

There are a number of DUI penalties to be aware of in Lynden. DUI attorneys at The Law Firm of David Jolly will coach you through all of them. The one that many people do not expect has to do with the mandatory alcohol and drug evaluation. The court will order you to be evaluated for alcohol abuse issues, something we can help you get through confidently. If it is determined that you have an addiction issue you may be required to complete a treatment program. If not, then you will still be sent to a alcohol and drug awareness class. It is in your best interest to complete this course before your final court date as a show of good faith, and our attorneys will give you all the information you need to do so.

As Lynden DUI attorneys our first objective is to inform all of our clients or those who inquire about their case of the process involved in defending a charge of driving under the influence.  This counsel includes dealing with the Lynden Municipal Court and the Department of Licensing.  Both issues are complex and come with potentially severe consequences.

The Lynden court process is often the most intimidating, and it is our duty to protect our clients from the prosecuting attorney (Lynden  Municipal or Whatcom County District Court) and Judges in Whatcom County.  While it is generally agreed that the Lynden court process is the most intimidating, the other issues that will be present cannot be overlooked either.
