Portland, Oregon: DUII Defense Attorneys
The experienced criminal defense lawyers at Raivio, Kohlmetz & Steen, P.C., have successfully defended hundreds of clients against DUII charges – driving under the influence of intoxicants.
We have had success with the defense of a wide range of DUII charges – from first-time offenses to jury trials for felony DUII or vehicular manslaughter.
Without an experienced DUII defense attorney, the negative consequences of a DUII conviction can be extreme – loss of your driver's license, significant financial penalties, and possible jail time.
Experienced DUII Defense Lawyers
At Raivio, Kohlmetz & Steen our attorneys have 70 years of combined criminal defense legal experience – including significant experience defending clients after drunk driving (sometimes known as DWI or DUII) arrests. It is imperative that if you are arrested for Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants you request a DMV hearing within 10 days of the arrest date to challenge the probable administrative suspension of your driving privileges. The attorneys at Raivio, Kohlmetz, & Steen can assist you in this regard.
Our law firm was founded by attorneys H. Scott Raivio, and Andrew M. Kohlmetz,, with the specific purpose of providing highly focused and discreet criminal defense services to residents of Portland and other Northwest Oregon communities.
Mrs. Raivio and Kohlmetz are joined by two additional experienced criminal defense attorneys – among them, our law firm has handled the defense of hundreds of DUII charges.
