At the Law Offices of Robert F. Sommers, we have successfully assisted clients in both individual and commercial driver’s license cases for over two decades. Our Ventura DUI attorney is capable of protecting your rights in order to get your life back on track.
Legal Guidance from a DUI Defense Lawyer
An individual who was arrested for DUI faces two legal hurdles – a criminal proceeding and a DMV hearing, which could result in a license suspension from four months to three years. The California DMV will automatically revoke your license if you fail to request a hearing within 10 calendar days of your arrest.
If you decide to drive with a suspended or revoked driver’s license, you may face the following penalties:
- First-time offense
- Jail time from five days to six months
- A fine between $300 to $1000
- Second offense (within five years of first)
- Jail time from 10 days to one year
- A fine between $500 to $2000

"My case would have had a much more severe outcome had he not been in my corner."
You never believe you could get pulled over for a DUI. Of course I would never drive intoxicated. But I made a poor decision and drove those few miles home. Thankfully there was no accident, however I'd committed a serious crime that would entail serious repercussions . Not only does a DUI affect your insurance, your record as a good citizen, but it is also a whole reality check on your life. I was so fortunate to have had the legal service of Mr. Robert F. Sommers, who dealt with my situation in a caring, efficient manner. The complete process involves much detailed attention. Attorney Sommers took care of it all for me, appearing in court, altering me to what I needed to do, and was always prompt in returning my phone calls, answering questions or concerns. My case would have had a much more severe outcome had he not been in my corner. His fee, which is comparably less expensive than other lawyers serving DUI cases, was worth every penny!- L.L.B. -
