Attorney Nicholas W. Christoph and William R. Christoph have dedicated their entire practice to DUI and Criminal Defense. Together, they've resolved over 5,000 DUI cases and thousands of other criminal matters, including hit and runs, theft, burglary, fraud, drug offenses, domestic violence, assault, weapons charges and criminal record expungement.

They have built a strong dependable reputation for excellence and are involved with local law enforcement, prosecutors and Judges on a regular basis.

In DUI cases, if your driverโ€™s license was seized following a DUI arrest, you should have received a pink temporary license and a 30-day notice of suspension. To challenge that suspension and keep your driving privilege, you must request a DMV hearing within 10 days of your arrest. Even if you ultimately get suspended, the delay by setting the DMV Hearing, allows you to do what will be required to immediately get a restricted license.

From the administrative DMV Hearing through representation for the Criminal case in Court, Nicholas and William will handle all aspects of your DUI case. They always give their clients an honest appraisal and instruction on what they can do to help obtain the best resolution.

They understand the anxiety clients feels when they enter the criminal justice system and will do what they can to help reduce anxiety individuals feel by thoroughly explaining the procedures, defenses and possible resolutions to their case.

They will answer your questions and advise you what needs to be done now for you to get the best result in your case. Reach out to Christoph Law Offices today for a free consultation.
