About Shawn Chalich Attorney

Shawn Chalich is a former prosecutor. Shawn Chalich provides defense in multiple areas : Criminal defense, dui, auto accidents, felonies. DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE DUIs have a vast effect. In recent years, the Legislature toughens the penalties on Drunk Driving, groups like Mothers Against Drunk Driving pushing much of it and the Legislators desire to be tough on crime. The result is that the penalties for DUI, even for first time offenders, are very stiff, disproportionately tough in contrast to other crimes. DUI are committed by all demographics of society, unlike other crimes, property crimes, drug crimes, which are disproportionately committed by those of lesser economic means, DUIs are committed by all walks of life. There are two separate and distinct actions in a DUI case:- the Department of Licensing action to suspend an offenders drivers license, and- the criminal action, in court, where an offenders drivers license can again be suspended in addition to mandatory Jail Time, Probation, restrictions that come with probation and having a probation officer, an alcohol evaluation to determine the offenders probation-ordered treatment. These two actions are often independent, you can lose your drivers license and win the criminal case at trial, or vice-versa, win the DOL suspension action and still face criminal sanctions.Aside from the obvious difficulty of jail time, the sanction of losing a drivers license can have far reaching consequences, including loss of a job. The difficulty and complexity of defending a DUI demand an experienced attorney. One who has been on the inside, prosecuting these very crimes and now, with this experience, defending against them.
