Shawnee, Kansas Criminal Defense and DUI Attorney
I have represented many clients in Shawnee, KS for different charges. The most common charge in Shawnee seems to be DUI. Shawnee prosecutors and police officers train on obtaining DUI convictions. To even the playing field, I train extensively on DUI defense, learn their policies and practice, and even do some of my training from their own sources. I have been trained to administer the Standardized Field Sobriety Tests from the same manual which law enforcement use, the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration manual. (NHTSA). I have taken the same written tests and visual observation exams the Shawnee DUI police have taken. This comes in very handy during cross-examination of the Shawnee police officer.

Is it important to hire an experienced Shawnee, Kansas DUI lawyer?
Oftentimes people will hear from friends, co-workers, or even the police that a lawyer is not necessary for a first time DUI charge. This is an extremely dangerous proposition. The laws concerning Driving Under the Influence in Kansas have been tightening significantly. Any DUI is serious. Even a first time offense will likely have a dramatic effect on your life due to Driver's license suspensions and jail time.
The Kansas DUI statute calls for jail time in every instance of a DUI. Simply pleading guilty and asking the Court to waive the jail time will not work. The judge is required to give you the stated jail time if you plead guilty.
