The most common charges we defend against are:

• DUI

• Solicitation for Prostitution (very common and highly enforced)

A lot of these charges are crimes of moral character which could have major immigration consequences.

Solicitation for Prostitution in Anaheim

Anaheim has been trying to clean-up Beach Boulevard and other areas. They often stop vehicles which “pick-up” those who are walking. They also tend to conduct sting operations where Johns are arrested for propositioning undercover officers.

Criminal Charges in Disneyland

We get a lot of clients who have been arrested in Disneyland for public intoxication, shoplifting, theft, trespassing, battery, fraud and possession of drugs and/or paraphernalia. Disneyland tends to wish for prosecution–it’s always best to leave your anger, weapons, drugs, alcohol, and sticky hands at home. If arrested, ask for a lawyer and don’t answer any questions.

What Should I Do After a DUI Arrest in Anaheim?

• Call a local and experienced DUI attorney.
• Do not speak with or give statements to the police or district attorney’s office without a lawyer present.
• Ask for a lawyer if you are still on the scene without being combative.
• Call the DMV within 10 days to request your administrative per se hearing or there will be a suspension of your license. We can assist you with setting up the Administrative Per Se hearing at DMV and representing you on that hearing.
• Get SR22 insurance.

DUI charges are usually a misdemeanor, but they can have devastating consequences for your employment, school, or immigration situations. Do not take a chance–hire an experienced DUI lawyer in Orange County to handle your matter.

How do I get my license back after a DUI in Anaheim?

Normally the officers will take your driver’s license and give you a temporary 30-day license via a pink sheet of paper. In order to get another one longer than the 30-day temporary license, you will have to call the DMV within 10 days of your arrest and ask for an APS hearing (administrative per se hearing). This will grant you another temporary license up until the APS hearing date. A skilled defense attorney can help guide you with this process in order to minimize your suspension period.
