Free DUI Lawyer In California

Reader’s Question:

I was once a victim of drunk driving here in Sacramento, California. I was so upset because the suspect did not show up in court for trial. The suspect now has an outstanding warrant for his arrest. I was told by a friend that information about DUI suspects in Sacramento are already being posted online. Is this true? How can that website work for us?

It’s true. Outstanding DUI suspects in Sacramento, California are now having their mug shots posted online in an attempt to stir action from the community and bring them to justice. The Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office recently posted the descriptions and pictures of 17 California DUI suspects who have either failed to show up in court or repeat offenders and face a variety of misdemeanor and felony charges.

A DUI investigator in Sacramento County said that the idea of this DUI program is to involve the community in nabbing wanted DUI suspects. Whether another person who has some grudge against the wanted individual or someone who is looking to do the right thing and turn a suspect in, the DUI investigator added that each suspect that is brought to justice via this collaborative Sacramento DUI program would represent one less dangerous person on the road and at least one life saved.

Reader’s Question:

My auto insurance company does not provide insurance for me anymore because of lapse in the coverage. I have already missed several payments. I have a DUI conviction in California and I’m seriously in need of an insurance company which will cover my SR22 insurance policy. Who will provide my SR22 now?

A California SR22 insurance policy is a type of car insurance policy required for California drivers by the California Department of Motor Vehicles and the courts after DUI related offense. In the state of California, it is required for a minimum of 3 years after a drunk driving conviction.

The SR22 insurance policy serves as an agreement between the CA DMV and the SR22 provider that requires the insurance company to immediately notify the CA DMV should the insurance company not be providing insurance for the driver anymore.

Most likely, the larger national auto insurance companies don’t do SR22 policies for two main reasons. First is that they don’t like to assume the risk that ‘high risk’ policies involve. Second is that they don’t want to deal with the extra paperwork and regulations required of insurance companies that handle SR22 insurance policies. The only other option left for you now is that you would have to seek out smaller companies and insurance brokers who specialize in this type of insurance.
