If you've been arrested for a DUI in Orange County, here is a list of things that you should not do:

• Do not fail to request a DMV hearing.  In the state of California you have 10 calender days to request a hearing.

• Do not make assumptions.  Just because you were registered at having a BAC over 0.08 doesn't mean you've lost your case.  Let your Orange County DUI attorney investigate to make sure that the reading was accurate.

• Do not fail to write down everything you can remember about the incident.

• Do not fail to gather witnesses who can attest to your level of sobriety.

• Do not hire an experienced DUI attorney based on the amount of the fee alone.

• Do not fail to appear in Court.

• Do not fail to educate yourself about the dangers of a DUI.

Failing to become educated and understanding the dangers of a DUI is probably the most important thing to think about.  Most people don't understand the implications of their DUI arrest.  I think one of the best ways to become educated is to simply read information on the internet, however, talking to an experienced Orange County DUI attorney will also definitely help.
