After a decade of working as a prosecutor in Massachusetts and one particularly harsh New England winter – my wife and I decided to give southern California a try. The day I flew to Oakland to take the California bar exam I spent the morning standing on a snow drift in my front yard using a sledge hammer to break ice dams on the roof of my house – that was the motivation I needed to pass the test. In 2015 I moved to San Diego and I've been serving San Diego County residents ever since. 

When I’m not working to win your case you can find me surfing the waters of North County (which are much warmer than my native North Atlantic), eating asado at Grand Ole BBQ, working it off at CrossFit 2120, taking in a concert with my wife at the Center for the Arts in Escondido or taking my dog for a cup of coffee and some dog biscuits at the Java Hut.

DUI Cases In San Diego County

What You Need To Know

California’s drunk driving laws (DUI) can be difficult to understand and carry serious penalties. Even if your blood alcohol content is below the legal limit you can face criminal charges for being “under the influence” of alcohol or drugs. Improperly handling a DUI charge can result in an extended loss of license, increased conditions of probation, and even time in jail.

You increase your chances of success in your DUI case by contacting a DUI defense lawyer before you take any other actions. An experienced lawyer can walk you through the complexities of the legal system wherever you are charged. A lawyer can ensure that you do not say or do anything that will damage your case.

California DUI Laws

In California, you can be charged with driving under the influence if your mental or physical abilities are impaired by drugs or alcohol to the degree that you no longer show the caution a sober person would.  You can be “per se” under the influence if your blood alcohol content (BAC) is above:

  • .01% if you are under 21 years of age or on probation for DUI 
  • .08% if you are a driver over 21 years of age 
  • .04% if you are a commercial driver

A conviction for a DUI charge can result in steep fines and time spent in jail. Each time you are convicted of DUI, the penalties grow steeper. You don’t have to deal with these charges on your own. Call or contact Rubin Law Office so that I can help you analyze the details of your case and start putting together a defense strategy.

David Rubin is not only a great attorney, but also obviously a great human being. I contacted other attorneys and they all basically told me, "your case is too small, not interested". But David treated me with respect, was extremely professional, prompt, and thorough.

David

I expected the best and the best I received. Dave basically took care of everything once he has what he needed. Kept me current with the as the case went on. I highly recommend him.
