Locating a driver after a DUI arrest in California can be challenging. San Francisco, California DUI Defense Attorneys at The Law Office of Robert Tayac can help locate anyone arrested for drunk driving in the San Francisco Bay area, including Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Mateo, Santa Clara, and Sonoma counties.

DUI ConsultationAnyone searching for a driver arrested for a DUI in California should have the person's full legal name and date of birth at hand. If the arrestee has contacted friends or family and provided his or her booking number, that will also help to quickly locate the driver and secure release.

Drivers arrested for Driving Under the Influence in California are released on their own recognizance (OR). This means that the arrestee is released from California jail on a written promise to appear in court to answer to drunk driving charges. If the driver does not appear in criminal court, an arrest warrant will be issued, and the driver will face separate misdemeanor charges for failure to appear if the underlying drunk driving charge was a misdemeanor, or felony failure to appear charges if the underlying DUI was a felony.

In California jail DUI arrestees, once located, may be released on their own recognizance, or the services of a bail bondsman may be necessary. Some counties have an OR officer that will screen those arrested for a DUI to determine the suitability of their release on their own recognizance. Certain counties will release drunk drivers automatically if they are local residents, have identification, and stay in jail long enough to protect the arresting agency from liability. If the driver cannot be released on his or her own recognizance, the services of a bail bond firm may be required.

Regardless of whether a driver is released on his or her own recognizance or must post bail, there is serious legal work ahead that should only be entrusted to an experienced California DUI defense attorney. Once an accused drunk driver is released from jail, he or she must worry about arraignment, the pending charges, and requesting a California DMV hearing within 10 days or risking an automatic driver's license suspension. San Francisco, California DUI defense attorney Robert Tayac can develop an aggressive defense strategy for any California driver accused of a DUI, driving under the influence of drugs (DUID), or any other driving-related crime.
