A drunk driving charge can happen to almost anyone - especially the way the current laws are written. If you have even a small amount of alcohol in your system, you can end up charged with driving under the influence (DUI) or driving while ability impaired (DWAI). What is the difference? It is only a matter of degree.
A domestic violence charge is unlike any other criminal charge. You are immediately subjected to many of the same brutal penalties you may face if you are later convicted. As soon as a charge of domestic violence is leveled against you, a restraining order will be put in place - possibly even before you can contact a defense lawyer.

Eric is the man! I flipped my car and was wrongfully arrested and charged with a DUI. Eric and his team were able to get my case dismissed. Had I not hired him I'm sure the outcome would have been much different. Aside from being a great lawyer, Eric is an extremely kind person. Even during a time when he was dealing with his own personal life matters he worked hard for me, demonstrated much compassion and kept me in the loop during the entire duration of my case by communicating effectively. The best result was made possible and was achieved by hiring Eric!

The dictionary defines "Exemplary" as "serving as a desirable model; representing the best of its kind." No other word, and the meaning it carries, can be used better to describe Eric Sunness and the service he provides. The process that comes forth after being arrested for a DUI is stressful, but the process of choosing a lawyer (specifically, a GOOD lawyer) only adds to the stress. Look no further, because you have found what you are looking for.
Eric Sunness, and his incredibly kind assistant Tammy, will provide you with legal assistance that is unparalleled with any attorney in the state of

Eric Sunness is a terrific attorney. I was facing some pretty hefty felony charges. He let me know exactly what he needed from me in order to help me. When my life was turned upside down, he was there for me every step of the way. He was very professional throughout the whole process. Eric was always available when I had a question, and was also very kind when answering them. My case was dismissed, and my name was cleared thanks to him. I will be forever grateful.

Mr. Sunness and his office were incredibly helpful with getting my case dismissed and are currently working to aid me in follow up needed. The office was prompt with responding to my questions and emails as well as provided me with support I needed with a process that is foreign to me. If you find yourself needing legal assistance, please call Mr. Sunness and he will do his best to help you and your situation.

Worth every penny! Mr. Sunness worked incredibly hard for my case and was able to reach a positive outcome for me that I did not even believe was possible! I felt hopeless about my case and worried that the money I would spend on a lawyer would be a waste, but I assure you it was well worth it and the price was *very* fair compared to other law offices in the area. Mr. Sunness also walked me through every step of the process, patiently answering any questions I had which made me feel at ease. I was skeptical about all the positive reviews, but they're all true. He is a fantastic lawyer and a very

Eric honestly saved my life - he not only helped me through my case but he was there for me through all of the long months of anxiety. He made me feel like I was safe in the decisions I was making, he was patient with me, he was kind, and honest from day one. From the day I walked into his office he told me the truth yet treated me with respect and kindness, looking past the mistakes I had made. He’s genuinely a great guy. He got my case dismissed and he helped give me another chance, at life. What really stuck out to me was after the dismissal his words to me, “I’ll always be a friend in
