A DUI conviction has lasting consequences. We'll work to get you the best result possible. We'll examine every part of the case, put the evidence to the test, and help you every step of the way.
We know that the penalties for even a first-time DUI conviction can be severe. If you're convicted of a DUI, your license will be suspended, jeopardizing your ability to travel and work. You'll also have to pay a steep fine and court costs, and can expect an increase in your car insurance premium.
Many times the best way to avoid a DUI conviction is by getting the charge reduced to reckless driving. Even if we can't get a case dismissed, a reckless driving reduction is a big improvement over the stiff penalties that come with a DUI:
| Penalties | DUI | Reckless Driving |
| Fines | $1,030 | $390 |
| Probation | 12 Mo | 12 Mo |
| Community Service | 50 Hrs | 50 Hrs |
| 6 Month Driver's License Suspension | Yes | No |
| 10 Day Vehicle Impound | Yes | No |
| DUI School | Yes | Yes |
| Increased Insurance Requirement | Yes | No |
We believe
people facing the court system should have access to information about what happens in cases like theirs. That's
why we built an exclusive analytics platform called
LegalOptics that's analyzed
hundreds of thousands of criminal cases, and broken them down by judge, charge, and result. We use this platform
to understand each judge's tendencies and how to achieve the best result in your case.
Whether you're in school and looking toward your first job application, or you've been in the workforce for a while, a conviction can be the deciding factor between landing the job you want and watching it slip away. At Harden Legal we believe no one should be defined by their record -- this is why we offer our expungement app for free to people who already have a criminal record. We're also here to help you keep your record clean in the first place.
If you've been charged with a felony, you need the attention to detail and experienced representation we can offer. Whether it's a drug crime, a felon in possession case, or something more significant, we'll put the evidence to the test to get the best result possible for you.
We have experience handling gun crimes, drug crimes, drug trafficking cases, federal crimes, and attempted murder cases. If you've been charged with a serious offense don't leave anything to chance. Contact us immediately and let us put our experience to work for you.
