Citation and Release

Have you been recently cited and released for a DUI in Medford or Jackson County? If so, you will be issued a citation with an order to appear for your court date and sentencing. These are important instructions, and should be treated as such if you’re hoping for the best possible outcome.

Arrest

If you have been arrested with a DUI charge in Medford or Jackson County, you will be issued an agreement that contains detailed instructions pertaining to your upcoming appearance in court. Failure to appear for your court date will lead to further complications in your case and will decrease your chances of a positive outcome.

Unfortunately, there is always the possibility that a convicted person facing arrest is completely innocent of any crime. Many factors can lead to this situation, however if you find yourself detained and arrested while facing possible DUI charges and you are able to prove your innocence, contact our law firm as soon as possible.

Felony DUI

If you have recently been booked at Jackson County Jail on felony DUI charges, you can expect to be held at the facility until your court date. However, you may be able to post bail if it applies to your situation.

Court Appearance

Your court appearance will occur at the Jackson County Court, located at 100 S. Oakdale Ave., Medford, Oregon 97501 at the predetermined date issued to you.

It is your responsibility to know and adhere to the exact date, time, and location of your court appearance. If you do not show up to your aforementioned court date, you will have a warrant issued for your arrest, and will be pursued by the police. In addition to your DUI charge, you will be cited with a charge of Failure to Appear, and held in jail for your next scheduled court appearance. Eliminate your chances of damaging your situation by obeying the instructions issued to you, and show up to court to increase your chances of receiving your best outcome.

Sentencing Options

By hiring an experienced DUI attorney such as Gilroy Napoli Short, you can make sure that all of your current sentencing options will be clearly laid out and identified for your current situation.

A DUI is a state crime, and every court in the state of Oregon addresses these charges in their own ways. By having a Medford DUI Lawyer that is well versed in these local laws, you can rest assured that your best interests will be in mind when it is your day in court.

Southern Oregon Treatment Programs

The Jackson County DUI Treatment Court Program is able to issue and apply the 12-step addiction treatment model to DUII offenders who have up to three misdemeanor DUII charges or display a high breathalyzer reading or blood alcohol test that results in a DUI charge.

By utilizing this treatment program that is complete with sanctions and incentives specifically designed to help members in the recovery process, the Jackson County DUI Treatment Court Program is able to help the accused take responsibility for their actions and assist them in a full and comprehensive recovery.

Jackson County DUI Diversion Program

Unique to the state of Oregon, first time offenders charged with drunk driving are immediately eligible to enter the DUII Diversion Program as opposed to serving jail time. To qualify for the Diversion Program, the accused must plead guilty or no contest to charges. Due to these special circumstances, your DUI can potentially be dismissed after one year if you have proven to have complied with the terms and have demonstrated good behavior.

      I had the misfortune of being wrongfully accused of a crime. Like many other people, I looked to other's experiences along with online reviews for direction on who to have represent me. I quickly recognized how highly respected and experienced Mr. Jeff Napoli and his team were as they have earned a solid reputation throughout the Portland metro area. Mr. Napoli was always prompt in responding and communicating with me. Mr. Napoli went above and beyond in repeatedly contacting the district attorney's office on my behalf and equally kept me apprised of what was transpiring.

Throughout this ordeal, I was also represented by Ms. Jenna Richards, a member of Mr. Napoli's team. My family and I were highly impressed. Both Jeff and Jenna conducted a thorough counter-investigation which clearly proved I was innocent of the charges against me. This was one of the most stressful periods in my life and I could not thank them enough for all of the help, attention and respect they showed me throughout this entire year-long ordeal.

I highly recommend Gilroy, Napoli and Short law firm to anyone seeking top tier representation. Thank you Jeff, Jenna and their entire team!

      It was 2022 and I thought I had lost my future. Due to careless due diligence, I made some seriously stupid decisions and ended up in a criminal defense case. This was my first legal experience and I had never been more emotionally distraught in my life. Thankfully, I made the right decision in having Tucker Rossetto as my attorney. The penalties could've been much worse, but he got it down to less than I thought it would be. From felony to misdemeanor. It was reassuring to know that there was light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you for everything!
