The Law Office of Laurie A. Schmidt wishes everyone a safe and Happy Forth of July.  We do not encourage drinking and driving, please keep in mind that there is typically more enforcement for catching DUI drivers around a holiday weekend.  This can include additional DUI officers on the street, DUI checkpoints and increased DUI arrests.

For additional information on what to do if stopped for DUI, check out our post, avoid DUI arrest.  Remember, with increased enforcement over the holiday weekend the reason that you were stopped may not raise to the level of reasonable suspicion, which is required by the United States of America and Colorado constitutions.

If you or a loved one are arrested for DUI over the holiday weekend, don’t wait contact us immediately by calling (303) 747-4686 or complete our on-line form.
