“My clients know that I meticulously prepare for each case and I can usually appear in court without the client having to be there. When I am retained I immediately subpoena all discovery, including the police report, calibration logs (for a DUI), police dispatch logs, belt recordings, witness statements, lab results, etc… Also, unlike many other Los Angeles and Pasadena criminal defense attorneys, I make myself available to my clients 7 days a week and I’m always happy to receive my clients’ phone call or questions. My clients don’t walk around with any unanswered questions because I am always ready to explain, investigate and resolve any issues a client may have with regard to his or her criminal case.”

Los Angeles DUI Defense: Important Advice If You Have Been Arrested or Charged for a DUI or DWI in Los Angeles or Pasadena:

If you have been arrested or charged with a DUI in Pasadena or Los Angeles, the first thing you need to do is to contact an experienced and aggressive Los Angeles DUI defense attorney who will actually care about YOU and your case. Getting an attorney quickly is particularly important in DUI cases because you only have 10 DAYS from the date of your arrest to request a hearing with the Department of Motor Vehicles.

When I am retained on a DUI case, I immediately subpoena from the DMV all the discovery, including blood and/or breath test results, maintenance and calibration logs, officer dispatch logs, etc…Since it often takes weeks to obtain some of the evidence, it is crucial to begin the subpoena requests early. On the day I am retained, I also contact the DMV and request an extension on the client’s driving privileges so they are allowed to keep driving until the case is resolved.

DUI law is a specialized area of legal practice, so it is crucial that you hire an experienced Los Angeles DUI defense attorney who is familiar with California DUI law and all the potential good DUI defenses and DUI trial strategies available.

Important Advice If You Are being Investigated For a Crime or are Arrested In Los Angeles or Pasadena:

Do not speak to the police! While they may pretend to be your friend, they are not! You have a right to remain silent and request an attorney be present. The police are paid to gather incriminating evidence against you so that the District Attorney has enough evidence to charge you with a crime. Therefore, anything you tell the police will be used against you in court.

Remember: the Los Angeles Police and Prosecutors have only one goal--to see you convicted! Pasadena criminal attorney Ann Gottesman believes that anyone who is being investigated by the police or arrested for a criminal offense such as domestic violence, a DUI, or any other crime, deserves to receive honest, good advice from an experienced Los Angeles and Pasadena criminal attorney who personally cares about her clients and knows the local Los Angeles county Courts, Judges and prosecutors.
