Criminal Defense
If you have been arrested for a criminal charge, especially if it is your first time, you may feel
upset, scared, stressed or confused. A conviction not only results in time behind bars, fines and
other harsh penalties, but it also means having a lingering criminal record that can make it
difficult to get a job, advance your education, discover a living space and take advantage of
other opportunities in life. However, just because you are charged with a crime does not mean
you are guilty.

charge, mesa criminal defense attorneys are ready

constitutional rights. They have a fully detailed
knowledge of Arizona criminal law to help you with
all the complexities that your case may present

charges/penalties reduced.
Some of the cases that can be filed are:
- Arson
- Criminal Damage

- Domestic Violence
- Drug Crimes

- Theft Crimes

DUI Cases
Arizona is a zero tolerance state when it comes to DUI, which makes finding an experienced DUI
attorney critical.
Did you know that in Arizona you can be charged with a DUI even if you were not in the driving of
your vehicle? The DUI statute only requires that you must have been in "actual physical control"
of the automobile. In order to determine whether you were in "actual physical control," a variety
of elements are considered, including the following:
● Whether the ignition was on

● Where the individual was located
● Whether the subject was conscious or asleep
● The location of the vehicle
● Time of day
An example of the defense of an "actual physical

control" charge is that you were using the vehicle
as a stationary shelter and did not pose a threat
to the public.
The penalties that accompany a DUI charge vary

greatly depending on the degree of impairment
of the defendant, whether they have a prior
record, whether any damage was caused by their
impairment, and whether there was a companion
under the age of 15 in the same vehicle.
Here are some types of driving under the influence (DUI) in Arizona:
● Regular DUI
The defendant's blood alcohol concentration is 0.08 or more within two hours of driving.
● Extreme DUI
The person's blood alcohol concentration is 0.15 or

greater within two hours of driving.
● Super Extreme DUI
The person's blood alcohol concentration is 0.20 or

greater within two hours of driving.
● DUI By Drugs
The person was under the influence of drugs, both

legal and illegal, while driving.
● Simple DUI
Class 1 misdemeanor DUI, often a first or second offense, when the individual is
impaired to the mildest degree.
● Minor DUI
Subject is a person under the age of 21 and is under

the influence of drugs or alcohol while driving.
● DUI Of Marijuana
The person is under the influence of marijuana

while driving or is in actual physical command of
the vehicle.
● Aggravated DUI
DUI charges involving an accident, a minor in the car, repeat offenses and other
circumstances.
If you have any charges associated with these cases, do not hesitate to seek out a
skilled Arizona DUI attorney who can help you deal with these issues in a way that is
easy and beneficial to you.
Personal Injury
It is important to have personal injury representation in Arizona. Whether it is an injury from a

car accident or from someone's negligence, an injury, whether minor or serious, can have a
major impact on your daily life. For example, your injury could leave you unable to work, which
could cause a financial hardship for you and your family.
In this case, one of the worst damages you can suffer is to have the wrong lawyer, so for these
situations you should choose the most skilled in representation, not only knowledge of the
cases, but also experience with insurance.
Hiring an attorney who has experience and understands insurance and personal injury can make
or break your case.
Some of the causes in which you might request

representation from an Arizona personal injury lawyer
are:
- Car accident
- Bicycle accident
- Motorcycle accident
- Dog bites
- Sidewalk accidents
- Truck accident
- Wrongful death
