Oklahoma law now requires that all alcohol related DUI and DWI charges be filed in the District Court rather than the Municipal Court. This change requires that the charges will be filed either as a misdemeanor or felony with significantly increased costs, penalties and possible incarceration time. Often, the Department of Public Safety will require suspension or revocation of your driver’s license as a result of these charges. Defending these charges require the skill and knowledge or an experienced DUI attorney. My legal services are designed to resolve the drivers license issues together with resolution of the alcohol related charges.
