Legal Question in DUI Law in California

Re: First offense DUI, what is going to happen to me?

First, there are a lot of factors involved in a DUI that need to be sorted out. Were you convicted after a trial? or did you enter a plea of guilty or no contest? Was there an accident and property damage involved? Are you under 21? Please provide more detail, and I'll see if I can help you. Good Luck.

Re: First offense DUI, what is going to happen to me?

I don't understand what you mean by recently convicted and you don't know what is going to happen to you, and you think you need a lawyer. You must have been arrested. And charges have or will be filed against you.

My advice depends on whether you are 21 or over? But regardless of your age, you need to request a DMV APS hearing within 10 days of your arrest.

I would hire a lawyer if I were you.

Re: First offense DUI, what is going to happen to me?

If you were 'convicted', you already know the penalties because the judge told them to you at sentencing. If you were only just arrested, you should get counsel to help you minimize the penalties. The sooner the better, because, among other things, the DMV appeal must be done promptly to avoid a year's automatic suspension. Contact me if interested.
