South Carolina DUI Defense Lawyer

You Have Rights in Drunk Driving Cases

David W. Farrell, Attorney at Law

If you are facing DUI charges, you have the right to an attorney to defend you. You have the right to not answer any questions without a lawyer attorney present. You have the right to refuse breath, blood and/or field sobriety testing. To get the full benefit of your constitutional protections, you should contact an attorney as soon as possible, especially considering the fact that DUI cases involve critical deadlines. With every missed deadline comes a missed opportunity. At the law firm of David W. Farrell, Attorney at Law, we take great care not to allow opportunities to pass us by. Our DUI defense strategy involves a complete investigation, which includes review of the audio and video evidence that is frequently available. We know what to look for to build a case designed to get results.

We encourage you to contact us to find out more about how we can help you prevent fines, jail time, driver's license suspension, increased auto insurance payments and the other consequences of a DUI conviction.

More Than 20 Years of Experience With DUI Cases

All defense cases are handled personally by attorney David W. Farrell. He puts over 20 years of criminal law experience to work for clients in the Columbia area and throughout the state of South Carolina. DUI cases are deceptively complex, so his experience is invaluable.

Drunk driving arrests are complex, involving not only the criminal charges, but also the collateral consequences of the breath test, ramifications of refusing the testing, procedural issues related to roadside sobriety tests, the legitimacy of the traffic stop and more. It is important to note that your drivers' license could be suspended, even if you are not ultimately found not guilty of the underlying offense, if you do not request a hearing at the Department of Motor Vehicles.

Our experience allows us to gather all of the facts, untangle them and then determine the direction to take the case in. You can be confident that it will be the right direction.
