DUI and Traffic Ticket Defense
California Driver's License Defense Lawyer
In California, DUI arrests and traffic tickets can lead to suspension of your driver's license for a year or longer. If you are facing the loss of your driver’s license, you need an experienced attorney like me to help you. I am Mark J. Madrigali, a California traffic violation, DMV hearing and DUI defense lawyer. From my office in Bakersfield, I represent clients throughout California who face serious consequences for DUI arrests, speeding tickets, allegations of reckless driving or other traffic charges. I am successful in a high percentage of my cases – last year alone I handled 1,500 traffic violations, and I obtained dismissals or zero-point convictions in over 90 percent of them.
Protect your right to drive
Hiring a lawyer to defend you against a traffic ticket or DUI does not cost you money. It actually saves you money in the end because:
- Many employers require a driver's license and a good driving record.
- If you have a Class A or commercial driver's license, a loss of points or a single DUI conviction can mean a loss of your livelihood.
- A DUI conviction or traffic offense can cause your insurance rates to go up for three years - in some cases by thousands of dollars.
- A DUI conviction comes with hefty court costs, license reinstatement fees and fines.
- If your driver's license is suspended, you may be tempted to drive anyway, and, if you are caught driving without a valid license you may very well face jail time.
Your driver's license is one of the most important assets you possess. You need a skilled and experienced lawyer to help protect it.
