Folsom’s Best Criminal Defense Attorney
If you’ve been arrested for a crime in Folsom, it is important to have an attorney sit down with you as soon as possible. If the police reports are available, your attorney will review them and discuss them with you. They will advise you about your possible defenses, consequences, and what your options are going forward. If you feel anxious, your attorney will be there to answer any questions you may have about your case or the criminal process in general.
Even if you think you may have no defense, a skilled attorney can parse through the evidence and spot issues you may not have known existed. For instance, there could be issues with the reason the officer stopped you in Folsom, or the way they searched your person or property. If such issues exist, the prosecution may be barred from using certain evidence against you.
A skilled attorney will think of mitigating evidence that could help negotiate a lesser charge or hopefully a dismissal. Just because you are arrested and charged with a crime in Folsom, does not mean you are guilty. If you find yourself in a tough situation, contact the Dbouk Law Office, P.C. to make sure your rights are protected from the outset.

Criminal Defense AttorneyAre you being investigated for a crime in Folsom but not yet arrested or charged? It is never too early to hire an attorney to represent you. The phrase “anything you say can and will be used against you in court” is true. It is important to have an attorney that can communicate on your behalf and nip in the bud any investigation before it turns into an arrest or formal charges.
If you have been subpoenaed to testify as a witness but do not wish to testify because you are scared, don’t want to incriminate yourself, or believe you have a privilege to not testify, contact us to make sure your rights are protected.
Being charged with a crime in Folsom, any crime, can put a permanent stain on your reputation. A misdemeanor charge can carry a maximum of one year in county jail. A felony carries the potential of time in state prison. We have experience and success defending against a variety of criminal charges.
If you have been arrested for a DUI in Folsom, it is wise to contact an experienced attorney immediately. There are both administrative and criminal consequences of a DUI.
Administrative aspect: Once arrested, the DMV will likely take action to suspend your license within 30 days of your arrest. You will have only 10 days from the date you receive notice in the mail to request a hearing. At the hearing you will have an opportunity to contest the allegations against your driving privilege. After the evidence is heard, the Driver Safety Hearing Officer will decide whether or not to suspend your driver license. The suspension could be from 4 months up to 1 year. We will diligently represent you at the DMV hearing and help protect your driving privilege.
Criminal aspect: A DUI arrest will likely lead to charges in court. If convicted, the consequences could be jail time, probation, alcohol education class, installation of an ignition interlock device, and further suspension of your license. We have experience defending against both alcohol and drug DUIs.
Unfortunately, an arrest may still show up on your background check even if you were never charged with a crime. Also, an old conviction that is eligible for expungement may still be on your record until you take initiative to remove it. We can assist you in cleaning up both old arrests and convictions.

Criminal Defense FAQ
Get Informed
Miranda rights include the right to remain silent and the admonition that any statements you make to a law enforcement officer will be used against you in your case, the right to have an attorney present during police questioning, and the right to have an attorney appointed if you cannot afford one. If the police take you into custody and conduct an interrogation but fail to advise you of your Miranda rights, the statements you provide will be deemed inadmissible as evidence against you in court.
An arrest without a warrant is permitted when an offense is committed in the presence of law enforcement, or if the police officer has probable cause to believe the person committed a felony regardless of whether it took place in the officer’s presence.
According to California Vehicle Code 40300.5 and Penal Code Section 836, police can make an arrest without a warrant any person they believe person had been driving while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage or any drug.
Under California’s Three Strikes law defendants convicted of a serious and violent felony who have two or more prior strikes can be sentenced to 25 years to life. Increased penalties are also assessed for people who are convicted of a second offense under this law, even if they have not yet accrued three strikes.
Instead of posting bail, you can request an O.R. release (a release on your own recognizance) which is simply a promise that you will appear for future court proceedings. A judge will consider factors such as prior criminal history and the severity of the crime in deciding on whether to grant an O.R. release, and any conditions for your release. You may be granted an O.R. release as long as your release is not considered a danger to public safety, and there is a likelihood that you will appear at future court hearings.
