BELLINGHAM DUI DEFENSE | LOCAL AND EXPERIENCED

2021 Whatcom County DI Handbook Bellingham

 Your defense to a DUI in Bellingham begins the moment you are released from custody.  Lack of preparation may result in the installation of an ignition interlock device at your first court appearance, supervised probation during your case, or even the Judge setting Bail and taking you into custody.  An experienced Whatcom County DUI Defense attorney can not only assist with the improvement of your case and hopefully the avoidance of a driving under the influence conviction, but can also protect you during the case and beyond.

There are many new laws mandated by the State legislature that may harm you at your first court date. You need protection immediately and would be wise to seek counsel as soon as possible. However, we also understand that access to the necessary funds may prove prohibitive and this is why we offer very low retainers and generous payment plans.  Please call our office immediately to discuss your case and our payment plans.
