We defend Sterling Heights drivers who hold a CDL.
When you drive for a living, a DUI is far more than a court date, because the state holds CDL holders to a stricter limit than every other driver on the road, so even a small reading can trigger a charge that threatens the job you depend on. One case can pull you off the road. It can stall your income for months. We know what that does to a family, so we move quickly, and our team reviews the stop, the testing, and every report from the very first day we take your case.
A CDL can face a ban of a full year after a first conviction, and a permanent ban after a second. That risk holds even when the charge comes from your personal car on your own time. So we dig in. We study how the officer ran the stop and whether the breath test was sound, and we know that many of these cases turn on one small detail that someone in a hurry simply missed. We find it. We put it to work for you.
- We protect your commercial license so you can keep working.
- We challenge the traffic stop, the arrest, and the breath testing.
- We explain the charge and your real options in plain words.
- We handle the court dates so you can stay focused on the road.
- We answer the phone and keep you posted at every turn.
Every CDL case starts with a close, careful look at the evidence that the state plans to use against you. Did the officer have a real reason to pull you over? We review how the breath or blood sample was taken, stored, and handled, and we hunt for gaps in the paperwork and breaks in the chain of custody. When the state cuts a corner, we raise it loud. That work can shrink a charge or end it before trial.
If you hold a CDL and face a DUI in Sterling Heights, do not wait. The clock on your driving record starts the moment you are charged, and the choices you make in the first days can shape everything that follows. Call us today. We will walk you through the next step.
