Don’t risk your job or future employment opportunities–consult with an experienced DUI criminal lawyer, to determine if you are eligible for this program.

ARD and your Pennsylvania DUI Arrest

However, ARD for a first DUI arrest may not be right for your case. Perhaps the officer did not have probable cause to stop you. Or maybe there was a problem with the breathalyzer machine, or the sobriety checkpoint wasn’t proper. Depending on the circumstances, you may choose to go to trial, because there is a good chance the prosecutor cannot meet his burden of proof and you will be found not guilty.
