Defending You Against Alcohol and Drug Charges
Bullhead City * Lake Havasu City * Kingman
Criminal charges involving controlled substances generally turn on very specific evidence. If you've been charged with an alcohol or drug crime, you will not want to give the police any evidence against you by trying to talk your way out of the situation. Instead, contact an attorney right away.
At the Knochel Law Firm, based in Bullhead City, Arizona, our criminal defense lawyers have the experience to give you a strong defense. Contact us to discuss how we can help you deal with your criminal charges.
Experienced Drunk Driving Defense Attorneys
If you've been pulled over for alleged drunk driving, you are likely facing two separate proceedings: a Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) hearing about your driver's license and a criminal trial for the crime of DUI (also known as DWI).
We will request a DMV hearing on your behalf and work hard to avoid or reduce the severity of the license suspension. We will also fight criminal DUI charges through a combination of negotiation and trial advocacy as necessary.
The related charge of OUI (operating under the influence) is often brought against people alleged to have been boating while using alcohol or drugs. This can have similar consequences to DUI, and we handle many OUI cases.
One big concern for many people is how a DUI or OUI conviction will affect their employment. If you are convicted, we will work to get you a restricted license so you can drive to work, and if you are sentenced to jail time, we will pursue a work release or a weekend sentence.
Lawyers for Your Illegal or Prescription Drug Case
Drug charges can have serious consequences, depending on the type of drug involved and the specific crime with which you've been charged. We are highly experienced at defending clients against charges such as simple possession, possession with intent to sell and trafficking of illegal and prescription drugs such as:
- Methamphetamines
- Speed
- Marijuana
- Vicodin®
- Valium®
- Percocet®
- Darvocet®
It may be that the evidence against you is faulty or was seized illegally. If so, we will fight to get the charges dismissed. We can also negotiate over issues such as rehab and probation rather than jail time.
If you've been accused of DUI (DWI), OUI or a drug crime in Arizona, Nevada or California, don't hesitate to contact us at the Knochel Law Firm.
