Protecting Your Rights in the Criminal Justice System
DUI Defense Lawyers in Omaha and Plattsmouth, Nebraska
Whether you have been arrested for drunk driving or possession of marijuana, you deserve the best defense possible. At JOHNSON & PEKNY, LLC, we are looking out for your best interests and will help you resolve your matter in a timely and efficient manner. When you've been charged with a crime, it is important to have an attorney on your side, protecting your rights.
The police and prosecutors do not have your best interests at heart and will use anything you say against you in court. Before you give a statement to the police, contact an experienced criminal defense attorney to make sure that your rights are protected. To schedule free initial consultation with our attorneys, contact us online or by calling 402-253-0823 (toll-free at 888-826-7309). We are willing to meet with you in jail, if necessary.
Defending Drunk Driving and Traffic Offenses
It doesn't matter if it is your first drunk driving (DUI/DWI/OWI) offense or your fifth. When you are charged with drunk driving there is more than just your driver's license at stake. Having a DUI conviction on your record can impact future employment opportunities. While the stakes are even higher for aggravated drunk driving and subsequent DUI offenses, having an attorney represent you even in your first offense can help you negotiate plea terms and find weaknesses in the state's case against you.
At JOHNSON & PEKNY, LLC we help you with your criminal drunk driving charges, as well as handle administrative license revocation hearings. While your court date for your DUI might not be for several months, you only have 30 days to deal with license suspension issues. Time is very important in these cases.
We also can help with traffic tickets and other traffic violations, from speeding tickets to driving under suspicion or leaving the scene of an accident.
