Any DUI involving a fatality is very serious and the fact that you have a prior DUI conviction means that the District Attorney’s office will very likely file 2nd degree murder charges against you. These charges carry a 15-life sentence and the stakes in your case could not be any higher.
With so much at stake it is critical that you meet with the Riverside DUI lawyers at Wallin and Klarich if you are not a US Citizen and are facing a DUI or other criminal charge in Riverside County. In most cases, we can appear in court on your behalf without you having to appear in court. Of course, if you do not appear in court then the risk of you being taken into custody and deported will be greatly diminished
The lawyers at Wallin & Klarich have over 40 years experience defending these types of cases. The mere fact that a person was killed in a DUI accident does not mean that you are guilty of murder. The District Attorney would have to prove all the elements of the crime and we would put them to the test every step of the way. Wallin & Klarich is familiar with the court your case is pending in, the judges and the DA’s in that court. Wallin & Klarich has attorneys who work as a team to get our client’s the best possible result in every case.
