Arresting people for Driving Under the Influence (DUI) is the primary focus of many police departments in Chester County, Pennsylvania.  There is a zero tolerance for being impaired and driving a motor vehicle.  If you have been arrested for DUI it is important that you consider the consequences of not taking immediate steps to hire a lawyer.  You could face jail time, lose your drivers license, be forced to pay thousands of dollars in fines and court costs.  If you need to drive for a living, imagine having your driver’s license taken away for months if you are arrested for DUI.  If you are stopped by the police for driving a motor vehicle while your drivers license has been suspended things have gone from bad to worse.  It is important to contact a lawyer immediately if you have been arrested for DUI.
