San Bernardino Hit and Run Attorney

Being arrested and charged with a hit-and-run offense in San Bernardino County can derail your life if not properly handled from the start.

Prosecutors often seek the harshest possible penalties in these cases including lengthy jail time, massive fines, and license suspension or revocation.

Even misdemeanor convictions can carry severe lasting consequences.

However, skilled criminal defense lawyers have experience fighting these allegations and protecting client rights.

Building a strong legal defense early on provides the best chance at achieving charge reductions or dismissals before charges irreversibly damage your record.

How Attorneys Defend Hit and Run Charges

Seasoned hit-and-run defense lawyers utilize proven strategies to combat allegations, such as:

• Examining Accident Reconstructions Critically: Many Hit and Run cases depend heavily on reconstructions assessing fault.
  However, these analyses involve subjective interpretations and assumptions that skilled lawyers can challenge.
• Disputing Specific Charges Filed: Prosecutors often file excessive charges carrying major penalties in hopes defendants will accept plea deals.
  But lawyers can file motions disputing inflated charges based on the actual evidence.
• Leveraging Reasons for Leaving the Scene: Strong defenses can be built around clients leaving accident scenes for objectively reasonable purposes like seeking urgent medical assistance.
• Securing Charge Dismissals: Experienced negotiators work toward diversion programs or plea bargains resulting in dismissed charges or substantially reduced sentences.
• Optimal Trial Defenses: If diversion or plea deals cannot be reached, lawyers use deep knowledge of traffic laws and trial experience to secure not-guilty verdicts.

The legal team at The Criminal and DUI Guys has employed tactics like these for years to successfully defend clients facing major consequences.

We have the skills and expertise to rebalance the scales of justice in your favor as well from day one.
