Standard DUI Charges Dismissed, Client Pleads to “Wet Reckless” on November 7, 2023

Our client was arrested for a standard DUI which generally results in the suspension of your California Drivers License and 36 months of summary probation. Through our negotiation, we were able to resolve the case for a Wet Reckless. In California, this is always a desirable settlement option for various reasons. (1) There is no mandatory court-ordered suspension of an individual’s driver’s license. Clearly, we all know that in Southern California having the ability to drive is crucial as alternate forms of transportation are often highly unreliable and costly; (2) Lower fines – the fine for a standard DUI is $1703 and the fine for a wet reckless is $609; (3) The probationary period for a standard DUI is 3 years. On a wet reckless, it is only 12 months; (4) the DUI program that would need to be taken with a wet reckless is only 12 hours, SB 1176. The program for a standard DUI is 36 hours, AB541; (5) Potentially less impact on a professional license if driving is related to your job; finally (6) less social stigma – we all want deals in life, right?

In closing, hire a fighter in your corner.

We are proud of her accomplishments and her ability to make positive changes that led to a better case result than she originally expected.

Standard DUI Charges Dismissed on 09/11/23. Case resolves for wet reckless to help with client’s DACA Immigration

Our client is a “dreamer” and recipient of DACA (immigration relief). Anyone with a standard DUI would lose their DACA immigration relief. We were able to obtain an offer from the prosecutor to reduce her offense to a “wet reckless” which will pave the way for the client to continue with her DACA Recipient Status.

Felony DUI Charges Dismissed, along with Great Bodily Injury Claim of 12022.7. Client pleads to misdemeanor DUI charges. Saves his career.

Our client is Shawn. At the time of his offense, Shawn was 60 years old. He had never been in trouble with the law before. He had been working in his career in the medical world for 34 years. In 2021, he unfortunately was involved in an automobile accident while under the influence of alcohol. The individual he collided with was injured. The injuries were significant enough to be charged as a felony, but we knew that if our client began a course of rehabilitation that one day we could work our magic and get Shawn a misdemeanor out of it and preclude him from becoming a convicted felon.

                        In March 2023, we announced ready for our PRELIMINARY HEARING in this case. At that prelim, the court had to find probable cause to believe that the injuries were that of “great bodily injury” to elevate his case to that of a strike offense. The prosecuting agency had already charged the Defendant with the strike offense PC 12022.7. At the conclusion of the preliminary hearing, the Court did not find sufficient evidence to hold the Defendant to answer for the GBI allegation and the court struck the strike enhancement. That eventually paved the way for us to continue fighting for Shawn.

                        Ultimately, we had no choice but to set the case for trial. On Day 9/10, we finally had our opportunity to persuade the court to reduce Shawn’s felony charges to misdemeanors.

                        On September 19, 2023, our wonderful Judge believed in our client’s rehabilitation process and agreed to reduce his offense to a misdemeanor.

                        Ultimately, we finally got resolution after over 24 months of working on the case.

                        At KIA LAW FIRM, we treat cases as if we were in trouble. We want to be the type of lawyers that care about their clients, their future and the goals they desire. We don’t do any type of cookie-cutter defense. Our client was wonderful and he listened to our advice and positioned himself to get the best result.
