There are more and more DUI (Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol) Roadblocks popping up in Delaware, and because the legal limit is .08, it doesn’t take much to get over that threshold. If you are going to drink, make sure not to drive because you don’t even have to break any other traffic laws at a Roadblock to get charged with a DUI.
There are all types of programs for first time offenders in Delaware: (1) Probation Before Judgment in CCP, Superior Court, Family Court or JP Courts; (2) Arbitration, School Diversion and Probation Before Adjudication of Delinquency for juveniles in Family Court; and (3) First Offenders Program for Domestic Violence in Family Court for Adults. The good thing about all of these is that if properly completed, then any charges that are resolved by the above programs can be expunged off your record after completing any court conditions.

When given traffic tickets, you should not just decide to pay them and not worry about going to court. Points can pile up quickly and you can avoid receiving any points by going to court and negotiating with the prosecutor.

DUI laws in Delaware are about to get tougher. A couple of changes are that a second offense will be 2 DUI offenses in 10 years (instead of 2 DUI offenses in 5 years) and 3 DUIs in a lifetime will be considered a felony (instead of 4 DUIs in a lifetime). These are just two examples. it is more important now than ever to hire an attorney to protect your rights!

I am an experienced attorney who has prosecuted and defended cases successfully. After spending over five years at the Delaware Attorney General’s Office prosecuting cases, several years ago I took up the defense of people who have been charged with crimes in Delaware. I will defend people with charges ranging from traffic offenses and DUI to serious felonies. Because I have been both a prosecutor and defense attorney, I understand how to obtain the best possible resolution for you.
I have extensive experience in all the courts of Delaware in all three counties – New Castle, Kent and Sussex. Whether it is Family Court, Justice of the Peace Court, Alderman’s Court, the Court of Common Pleas or Superior Court, I will be there to defend you and fight for your rights. If you are charged with a traffic offense, violation, misdemeanor or felony, I will be committed to helping you with competent representation and a supportive environment. I understand how important it is to treat a client with the utmost respect and I guarantee to keep you informed at every step in your case. If you leave a message with my office, I will return your call within 24 hours.
If you entrust me to represent you, you will not be disappointed. I will represent you zealously and with integrity.
