If you have been arrested for DUI in Alameda County, it is best to work with an experienced DUI defense attorney. Lynn Gorelick has worked in this area for more than 30 years. Ms. Gorelick has dedicated her career to defending those who have been accused of crimes in Alameda and the surrounding areas.
It is important to be aware that DUI charges carry both administrative and criminal penalties. After your arrest, you have only 10 days to request a hearing in order to dispute your administrative license suspension. Your right to an administrative hearing is deemed to have been waived if you fail to request the hearing within the strict 10-day time frame.
The criminal component of your charges will begin shortly thereafter. In Alameda County, DUI offenses are handled by the Criminal Division of the Alameda County Court system. In 1998, all Alameda County Trial Courts were unified to form the Alameda County Superior Court. Currently, DUI cases are heard in courts located in Fremont, Hayward, Dublin, and Oakland.
