Common Questions
How much does a DUI lawyer cost?
We offer a transparent flat-fee structure for many DUI matters. This provides predictable costs without hourly billing surprises. Fees may vary if the scope of representation changes, ensuring clarity regardless of the case direction.
What is ARD in Pennsylvania?
Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition (ARD) is a pretrial diversionary program that may be available to certain eligible individuals charged with a DUI. It is subject to approval by the appropriate authorities and is designed to focus on rehabilitation.
Am I automatically eligible for ARD?
Eligibility for the ARD program is not guaranteed. It depends on various factors, including the specific circumstances of your case, your prior record, and the approval of the District Attorney through the established application process.
What happens at a DUI preliminary hearing?
A preliminary hearing is an initial proceeding where the Commonwealth must demonstrate that a crime was committed and that there is sufficient evidence that the defendant was likely the one who committed it. It is an opportunity to evaluate the case evidence early in the process.
Can a DUI be expunged after ARD?
Generally, successful completion of the ARD program can make your record eligible for expungement. The process depends on the specific circumstances of your case and adherence to all program requirements. We assist clients in navigating the expungement process following the resolution of their matter.
Do you handle DUI trials?
Yes. Attorney Larry Kansky is a trial attorney with extensive courtroom experience. He can provide representation when a matter cannot be resolved through other avenues, ensuring your case receives direct attorney attention through every stage of litigation.
