Joshua M. Dale, Esq
I am by far the most reasonable criminal defense attorney you'll ever meet. I can help you free by Text or Call (707) 520-4350 - As a veteran, I love to assist my fellow veterans and you may be entitled to some avenues non-vets don't have the pleasure of. Welcome to my site - Where you get arrested is the important factor for where your court will be (it is also listed on your citation or bail paperwork, usually).

Most people arrested in Mendocino County go to court in Ukiah or possibly in Fort Bragg. For Sonoma County, Santa Rosa. The Napa Court is in Napa. You may go to Vallejo or Fairfield if arrested in Solano County. And in Marin County, the court house is at the Civic Center in San Rafael. If you're here, you or a friend may need a criminal defense attorney.

You are charged with either a felony or misdemeanor. In this area of criminal law, you can be convicted based solely on the "opinion" of the arresting officer. The penalties for DUI crimes are severe. There are mandatory jail sentences, fines, classes, probation, and other sanctions as punishment. You can also be subject to "enhancements" and "special allegations" (extra punishments).
As you've probably heard or read, Sonoma County jury trials are on hold again. In 2018, the state police signed a $1.3 million contract with Intoximeters Inc to have technicians certify Datamaster DMT breath testing units every 120 days, as is required by law. Last April, police noted "noncompliance" by the technicians, including sixty instances of failing to conduct the certifications on time."

Josh is a very skilled attorney who is a strong advocate of fighting hard on behalf of his clients. He also helps and advocates a strong education for attorney's who fight DUI's. He is so well respected that when he was in Fresno Superior Court on a Serna Motion a couple years ago, the lawyers who knew, went to watch. That is the highest form of compliment an attorney can receive from is peers.

Attorney Josh Dale is one of the best DUI defense attorneys in the Bay area. I have known Josh for over 10 years and know that he consistently gets great results for his clients. Whenever I have a friend or family member in need in the Bay area I always tell them to call Attorney Dale. Not only does he know how to defend cases and win at trial he is compassionate and has a big heart. If you need help with a DUI or other criminal matter I would recommend calling Josh Dale.

Joshua M Dale is the best of the best when it comes to California DUI lawyers. If you are in the bay area and you need someone to help you with a DUI case I give him my highest recommendation. Mr. Dale is on the board of directors for the highly respected California DUI Lawyers Association. He is also the author of the "bible" on California DUI defense, a practice guide he co-authored with legendary California DUI attorney "Fast" Eddie Kuwatch. I have practiced DUI law myself in Southern California for the past 13 years and I use Mr. Dale's practice guides on a daily
