Answers:
Los Angeles is an extraordinarily large city. There are twenty different criminal courthouses! And each courthouse has at least ten different judges. With so many venues for hearing cases, and so many individuals with different experiences and preferences involved, there is very little uniformity. What may be good strategy in one court, before one judge, may lead to maximum penalties in another. You do not know which court or judge you will be appearing before at the time of your DUI arrest. This means that it is important to retain the services of a DUI defense attorney with experience in every court, before every judge.
