Pennsylvania DUI Defense is NOT Criminal Defense

When choosing the Best DUI Defense Attorney in Pennsylvania, many people first look for a "Criminal Defense Attorney."  Unfortunately, many criminal defense attorneys attempt to practice DUI Defense.

Although DUI cases often follow the same path as a criminal case and follow the rules of criminal procedure, the fact is... DUI Defense is NOT Criminal Defense.  

At The Morgan Law Firm, over 90% of our practice is dedicated to DUI Defense. 

What is the difference between a DUI Defense Attorney and a Criminal Defense Attorney?  Well, the primary difference is the level of education related to DUI Defense.  At The Morgan Law Firm, we focus on the three stages of a DUI case.  The Probable Cause to Stop, Probable Cause to Arrest, and the Chemical Sample. 

The reason is simple:  In a criminal case, prosecutors are often willing to negotiate resolutions and plea bargains to avoid a trial.  No one really cares if a drug possesser gets a deal.  If an assault defendant commits a crime, the greater population does not care.  However, the awesome power of groups such as MADD have effectively captured the legislature, judiciary, and District Attorneys of Pennsylvania politically.  If a deal is made, the DA may lose the precious support of MADD.  As a result, it is politically inconvenient for a DA to make a deal.

A Pennsylvania DUI Defense Attorney must understand the political realities and not complacently expect a deal.  The Best Pennsylvania DUI Defense Attorneys know that the key to a successful outcome is to challenge every detail.
