Here's How To Get A Free Consultation To Find Out
How You May Be Able To Beat Your DUI

Even though you've been arrested for DUI, you don't have to let it ruin your life. You may not realize it yet, but if you are thinking about simply going to court and pleading guilty to your DUI charge you may be cheating yourself.

You see, a qualified attorney can review the case for defects, suppress evidence, compel discovery of such things as calibration and maintenance records for the breath machine, have blood samples independently analyzed, obtain expert witnesses ­ all of which may help you to win your case at trial.

To find out what you need to know about your DUI arrest I've developed a website to give you a wealth of useful information . . . information which will show you how you may be able to save your license and your freedom . . . and possibly avoid fines, fees, and sharply increased car insurance costs of as much as $6,800.

For the most part, my easy-to-navigate site has information on it which you can't get anywhere else unless you are willing to do a great deal of legal research.

When you're on my site, you'll also learn how you can get a free, no-obligation consultation where I'll review your case and show you how I may be able to save your license and your freedom.

• Ernest Stone: Should I speak with the Police? NO! Make no statement and sign nothing. If the police think that you will talk, they may try to interview you. You may even believe that this is your chance to tell your story. However, the police are not there to clear you of suspicion. Their role is to gather evidence to convict you of a crime. When the police ask you questions, the first words out of your mouth should be: "I won't answer any questions without my lawyer." The police regularly use deceptive tactics and lie to people under investigation. They tell you that if you tell them your side of the story, they will not arrest you. That is a lie. It is a regular police tactic - used in the hope that the accused will make a statement which can later be used against them in Court. The police will try to trick you into talking without a lawyer by saying things like: "If you didn't do it, you don't need a lawyer. You are not a suspect. Only guilty people ask for a lawyer! This is your only chance to tell your side of the story!" These are lies the police frequently tell in hopes of getting you to give up your right to consult with a lawyer and to have that lawyer present with you during questioning. If they can trick you into talking without a lawyer, they will take advantage of your limited understanding of the law. For example, did you know that the person who drives the car in a bank robbery can be found guilty of murder and armed robbery if a guard is shot. This is true even if the driver never entered the bank and had no idea his partner was armed. You have a right to remain silent and to have a lawyer present during any questioning. Many people sitting in prison today would be free if they had exercised their rights! Whether you should speak to the police is an extremely important and complex decision, which can only be made with the advice of competent legal counsel.
