Our lawyers work not only to dismiss or reduce the DUI charges against you in Arizona, but also to protect you from the inconvenience of defending yourself on a criminal charge in a court far from home. For tourists, spring break visitors or commercial drivers passing through the state, we can often waive your personal appearance in court on a first-offense DUI, in which case you may not need to return to Arizona to resolve the case.
Our goal for out-of-state clients is the same as it is for local clients — to find the defense based on the evidence that gives you the best possible chance at dismissal or reduction of the DUI charge. That's how you can avoid a lengthy suspension and the continuing stigma of a criminal record.
For local or out-of-state drivers facing increased penalties based on a prior out-of-state DUI or DWI conviction, our DUI attorneys will look for reasons why the previous conviction shouldn't count against you on the current charge, most often based on differences between the other state's drunk driving statutes and Arizona law.
Craig Gillespie is a certified criminal law specialist under standards established by the State Bar of Arizona. Nonresident defendants can take full advantage of his skill and experience with the resolution of serious DUI charges in Greater Phoenix and throughout the state.
