Gladstone, Oregon DUI Attorney

All over the state, people find themselves getting pulled over by the authorities and getting charged with a DUI. While there might be times when you will feel overwhelmed and scared because you are alone, keep in mind that being charged doesn’t necessarily equate to a conviction.

Call us today at 503-747-7198 for a free consultation with a lawyer.

To have a chance at fighting the conviction, you should call our experienced DUI lawyers right away. Here’s what DUI attorneys want all of their clients to know:

Citation and Release in Oregon

If an officer has given you a citation and then released you with a DUI citation, you are ordered to appear for the scheduled court date as well as sentencing.

Arrest in Gladstone

In cases where the driver has been arrested, they are given a piece of paper that contains an agreement along with the court date instructions upon release from the county jail.

Felony DUI in Gladstone

Drivers who are booked on Felony DUI charges are held in the county jail until their court date. In some cases, especially with the help of a Gladstone, Oregon DUI lawyer, the drivers can be released as soon as bail is posted. All drivers facing Felony DUI charges must appear in front of the Clackamas County Circuit Court.

Court Appearance in Gladstone

All court appearances will be at the Gladstone Municipal Court and the drivers should know the date, time, and location of their court appearance. Missing the date results in a warrant for arrest. The authorities will pick the driver up and add a Failure to Appear charge. Missing a court appearance means drivers will be held in jail until their next court date.

Sentencing Options in Clackamas County

A trusted criminal defense attorney will explain the different sentencing options thoroughly. However, it is good to remember that a DUI is considered a state crime and all DWIs are handled differently, depending on the state.

A 12-step addiction treatment program known as the Clackamas County Treatment Court Program helps people take responsibility for their deeds and give them a better chance at recovery. The model includes added sanctions and incentives that motivate participants to do better. This program is for offenders with three or more misdemeanor DUIIs.

In Oregon, all first-time DUI offenders are eligible for a DUI Diversion Program instead of the usual jail time. The offender must plead guilty and should not contest the charges which result in the charges being dismissed after one year.

      Jason Wheeless is one incredible attorney. From the very beginning I felt at ease and confident he would do everything in his power to achieve an ideal outcome for me. In less than 10 days Jason was able to do what I thought would be nearly impossible. I can’t thank you enough, Jason, you are simply amazing! I also want to thank you for your kind and sincere words of support and encouragement. I am truly grateful for your counsel and wisdom.

      I am so grateful for the guidance and support my attorney, Jenna Richards, provided. She gave me sound, straightforward advice and always made sure I understood my options. Most importantly, Jenna never made me feel judged or like a bad person—something that meant so much to me during a very difficult and unfortunate situation. She stood by me through the entire process and helped me get through it step by step. I would highly recommend Jenna to anyone who needs not only strong legal representation but also compassion and understanding along the way.

      Very professional and helpful law group. Right off the bat, they made me feel like they had my best interests at heart. Never felt any judgement or any sense that I was wasting their time with my questions, no matter how simple the questions may have been. And they always made themselves readily available to help me with sudden unexpected concerns that may have come up.
