When you have been arrested in Hartford and need a CT DUI Lawyer, call Attorney Brian Murphy on the spot. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs in Connecticut is a serious matter. As a local attorney with over twenty years of experience, Attorney Brian Murphy has the experience to guide you through your defense. He has counseled scores of DUI cases with successful results. In the state of Connecticut, DUI charges are taken seriously in Court. Convictions may carry some stiff penalties, even for first time offenders. Examples of these penalties include mandatory jail time, community service, fines, a license suspension and driving with an Ignition Interlock Device (IID).
After being arrested for a DUI and released, you will have to Appear at the Connecticut Superior Court for the area in which you were arrested to defend yourself against the DUI. You should also expect to receive a Suspension Notice Letter from the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), which means you will have to schedule a hearing with the DMV to challenge it. If we represent you, Attorney Murphy will handle the DMV matter as well as the Court Case. Failure to appear and Schedule the DMV hearing will automatically result in a 45-day license suspension plus having to drive with an Ignition Interlock Device (IID) for either 6 months or 1 year.
