The types of criminal charges handled by Perliss Law Firm are diverse, ranging from misdemeanors to felonies. Our experience extends to defending against DUI arrests, drug-related crimes, theft charges, sex crimes, and violent crimes. Each type of case requires a unique defense strategy, and our attorneys are adept at identifying and implementing the most effective approaches.
Comprehending the specific nature and potential consequences of these charges is vital for anyone facing criminal accusations. Let’s delve into the details of each type of case, starting with DUI arrests.
DUI arrests are one of the most common criminal charges in Alhambra. Typically, a DUI arrest involving a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 or higher results in a misdemeanor charge. However, the charges can escalate to felonies in certain circumstances, such as if the individual has prior DUI convictions or if the arrest involved an accident resulting in injury or death.
A DUI arrest can lead to severe implications, including significant fines, license suspension, and even jail time. For those with prior DUI convictions, consequences can be more severe, including extended license suspensions and harsher penalties. This is why it is crucial to have experienced DUI lawyers who can navigate the legal complexities and provide a robust defense.
At Perliss Law Firm, we understand the nuances of DUI cases and the importance of acting swiftly. Our attorneys are skilled in challenging the evidence presented by the deputy district attorney and the district attorney, ensuring that every aspect of the case is thoroughly examined. From representing clients at the DMV license suspension hearing to defending against felony charges, we provide comprehensive legal assistance to protect our clients’ rights and driving privileges.
One of the critical aspects of a DUI arrest is the potential for a DMV license suspension. Requesting a DMV hearing within seven days of a DUI arrest is crucial to avoid automatic license suspension. This hearing provides an opportunity to present evidence, witnesses, and legal arguments in defense of the driver’s case.
Addressing DMV hearings promptly is crucial to prevent penalties such as license suspension. The DMV hearing process can be complex, and having experienced DUI lawyers to navigate this process is vital. At Perliss Law Firm, we provide comprehensive legal assistance to ensure that our clients’ driving privileges are protected.
Our attorneys understand the importance of safeguarding one’s driving privileges and are skilled in presenting a strong defense at DMV hearings.

Drug crimes are another area where Perliss Law Firm excels. We defend clients against a wide range of drug-related charges, from simple possession to the most serious narcotics charges.

Theft charges encompass a wide range of criminal acts, including:
Shoplifting
Petty Theft

Commercial and Residential Burglary
The classification of these charges can vary based on the specifics of the case, such as the amount involved in the theft and the criminal record of the accused. Theft charges can range from infractions to felony charges depending on the severity of the crime.

Sex crimes are among the most serious and stigmatizing charges one can face. These include offenses such as child molestation, statutory rape, forcible rape, sexual battery, and possession or distribution of child pornography. A conviction for a sex crime can lead to severe consequences, including lengthy prison sentences, mandatory registration as a sex offender, and significant damage to one’s personal and professional life.

Violent crimes, such as murder, battery, robbery, and assault with a deadly weapon, carry some of the most severe penalties in the criminal justice system. A conviction for a violent crime can result in lengthy prison sentences, significant fines, and the permanent loss of certain civil liberties, including the right to vote and the right to possess firearms.

Many employers conduct thorough background checks and often disqualify applicants with felony records. This can severely limit job prospects and career advancement opportunities.
