ARRESTED FOR Regular DUI IN MESA Arizona?

Mesa Municipal Court: A Conservative Jurisdiction

If you were arrested in Mesa, your case will be heard at the Mesa Municipal Court on 1st Avenue. This court has a reputation for being one of the most conservative in the East Valley. Prosecutors here often seek "jail time" where other courts might offer home detention. You cannot walk into this courthouse expecting a plea deal without a fight. We know the specific judges (like Judge Umpleby) and how to present a "mitigation packet" that humanizes you, rather than letting you be just another case number.

The "US 60" & "Loop 202" Speed Trap

Mesa PD's Traffic Section is aggressive on the highways. A common scenario involves a driver being stopped for "speeding" (civil violation) on the US 60 or Loop 202, which then turns into a DUI investigation. We attack the "Nexus" of the stop. If you were stopped for speed but maintained your lane perfectly, the officer may have lacked the necessary "reasonable suspicion" of impairment to expand the stop into a DUI investigation.

Downtown Mesa & The Arts Center

With the revitalization of Downtown Mesa, police presence has increased around Main Street. Officers often watch patrons leaving breweries and restaurants. We analyze surveillance footage from nearby businesses to prove you were walking steadily and acting sober before you got into your car, contradicting the officer's subjective "field notes."

15-Day License Warning

The clock is ticking. You have exactly 15 days from your arrest to request an MVD hearing. If you do not, your license is automatically suspended for 90 days. We file this paperwork immediately to "stop the clock" and keep you driving while we build your defense.
