Total Dismissal of Drug and Alcohol DUI

In February 2018, I was arrested for driving under the influence and a blood test came back positive for cannabis. My criminal history isn’t too great – I’m a “super striker” and had a recent felony conviction that I’d gotten probation. Looking at my history, no DA was going to cut me any slack and... the super striker status means any jail time gets automatically doubled. I was referred to Joshua Price by another attorney who didn’t want my case and said he was the best. I wanted him to delay the case as long as possible and he was very successful – trial was originally scheduled for August 2018 and it was postponed until April 2019. Not great for him because he made numerous trips to the Vista courthouse but great for me because I didn’t attend anything other than the Preliminary hearing. I was given both a breathalyzer and a blood test and he filed a Motion to Suppress the blood test and won! That meant we no longer had to deal the cannabis and only had to fight the DUI. At the preliminary hearing, he managed to get the cop to say “I don’t know” or “I don’t remember” multiple times and was clearly respected – even congratulated on his performance by another attorney. The final result? A TOTAL DISMISSAL OF CHARGES. To say I was shocked with the outcome is an understatement. Because of my history, some of the other attorneys I originally contacted wanted more for a retainer than a DUI would have cost. While not cheap, Mr. Price was worth every penny and he earned it. He put a lot of hours and thought into my case. Also, because this is all he does, he’s truly an expert and that was clear in all our actions. He just knows more about this area of law than anyone else in the room. Throughout the process, he was respectful, responsive, and always kept me informed. I’ve had the unfortunate opportunity to work with a number of different lawyers and Mr. Price is one of the best. I recommend him without reservation!

You won’t regret it!

Joshua did an amazing job on my case!! I was facing a second DUI which included a NIGHTMARE of consequences, such as jail time, an 18 month DUI program, road side work, up to 2 year license suspension, a HUGE fine and much, much more. I was absolutely terrified so I looked around for the best DUI law...yer I could find. Joshua was so helpful and made me feel a lot better. When Joshua called me and left me a voicemail telling me he was able to reduce my fine to a wet and reckless, I was beyond happy. He went so out of his way, he even spoke with a supervisor at the courthouse to fight for my case. I ended up with NO jail time (which was my biggest fear), a 12 HOUR program VS, an 18 MONTH program, no alcohol anonymous classes, no road side work, decreased fine by more than 500 dollars, only 1 year suspension (Could have been less but I waited too long for a Dmv hearing), and so so much more. If it wasn’t for him, I would be at a really bad place right now. If your iffy on getting a lawyer, my advice is to go for it because the court system will give you the worst punishment possible, reguardless of the situation. In my case, Josh really fought for me and the results showed for itself!

DUI with a .117% BAC reduced to a WET

On August 2018 I made a decision to drive home after drinking at work event. I did not allow myself enough time to metabolize the alcohol in my system before I elected to drive. I was subsequently pulled over by CHP (one mile from my destination). I was compliant in my whole interaction with CHP, bu...t being unfamiliar scenarios like this, it’s very difficult to know what tests you could refuse to take. I was eventually placed under arrest, and taken down town where I elected to submit to a blood test. I charged with two counts of DUI with a BAC of .117 and spend a night in jail. After I posted bail, I immediately got on the web and searched for lawyers in San Diego. I stumbled upon Joshua Price’s page and started reading his reviews. Mr. Price’s reviews depicted his client interaction as genuine, informative, reassuring, and included very positive court results. Reaching out to Joshua Price and his law office was the best decision I made. These are the points that stand out during the course of my case: • Very accessible and timely • Outlined clear instructions and timeline to prepare my case • Realistic expectations and outcomes • Price competitively for pre-trial and trial work • Supportive and knowledge office staff (Amanda) We were looking at an uphill battle with my case, as my incident was almost a perfect textbook example of a DUI stop. Mr. Price was realistic and upfront with me as he outlined my options. Getting the case dismissed on a technicality or prior to trial was not likely. Fighting the case in trial would at best leave me with a 50/50 shot in either getting both counts dismissed or being convicted on both counts. We elected to submit a plea and see if we could get the charges dropped down to a WET. After a few back and forts with the DA and the court we were able to get my plea deal accepted. I ended up getting: • WET with a .117 BAC • My fine reduced by $500 for my time served in jail • 3 years’ probation • 3 month DUI first offender program Amanda Jew provided me with clear and concise information so I could apply for a restricted license and enroll into my DUI program. We were able to time my driving suspension around our holiday break to minimize the time I would be without my car. By the time I could apply for a restricted license, I was able to enroll into my 3-month program, and get the official results from the court. Mr. Price and his team where instrumental in making this chaotic time in my life easier to navigate. I intend to work with his office when I become eligible to expunge record. I highly recommend Mr. Price and his office should you find yourself facing DUI/DWI charges.

prescription DUIs

Joshua Price and his assistant Amanda were a real blessing for me in a time of great difficulty. Mr. Price was always available to talk with me regarding my cases (4 prescription med DUIs within 6 months, including collisions), and advise me. He handled everything professionally and with great exper...tise and skill. I never had to go to court or to the DMV hearings and he or Amanda contacted me straight away to inform me the outcome - which was always favorable. I did not get a felony and did not have to go to jail (only home detention). Just DUI classes, pay a fine, and MADD class. He even reduced his fee since I was wracking up so many cases in a short period. (had an addiction issue) Joshua Price is not only an excellent attorney who delivers wondrous outcomes, but is super easy to talk with since he really cares about his clients. Highly recommend!

.166% but case dismissed!!

To all who think this is a fake review... This is a real case that occurred in March 2017. I simply wish to leave an anonymous review. After the incident, I was devastated and could not believe what had occurred in the early morning (I'm sure all of you who were first offenders probably felt the sam...e way). I knew I had to hire a lawyer and after seeing many positive reviews about Josh Price and his team, I decided to hire him as my lawyer for my case. At this moment in life, I am extremely glad I made the decision. Mr. Joshua Price and his team were highly professional throughout my case and even though I had many questions, they were able to answer with a very quick turnaround time. After months and months of fighting for me, Josh was able to grant me an opportunity into a diversion program and approximately a year later, my case was fully dismissed! With all the factors against me (i.e. .166% BAC, officer's probable cause to pull me over, failing field sobriety test, etc.), I cannot be more grateful to where I am today. I'll leave this one last note... For those who are in the same predicament as I was and for those who are considering to hire Mr. Josh Price as your lawyer, understand that he (and anyone else for that matter) will not be able to guarantee results. However, also understand that he will fight for you until the conclusion of your case. He is not a lawyer to waste time and will give you the straight forward answer with no fluff. Best of luck to all those who are going through the same experience and going through some rough times in life.
