About Me

Two years ago, a drunk driver hit my van as I was driving home from work. I was sent to the hospital with 12 broken bones and a serious concussion. I was thankful that I was alive after the injury, but I started to panic as my hospital stay dragged on for three weeks. I simply did not have the money for my medical bills, and I had missed a lot of work. As soon as I was discharged from the hospital, I started contacting the other driver's insurance company so I could file an injury claim. I felt that the facts of my injury were basic, but the claim stalled after six months. I contacted an attorney in my desperation, and the experience of the professional helped garner a court case and a settlement fairly quickly. I am sharing my story, so you can skip all the legal mistakes I made.

Arrested At A DUI Checkpoint? Check The Legality

Law enforcement checkpoints can be set up anytime, though they are more common during certain times of the year. If you have been arrested for DUI at such a checkpoint, it might be easy to assume that you have no recourse. That, however, is far from true. Just as with all arrests, law enforcement must follow the rules to the letter so that the arrests are all valid. To help you understand the laws applying to arrests at checkpoints, you must go back to the legality of the checkpoint.
