If you are suspected of a crime or charged with a violation of law, you may require the services of a criminal defense attorney to present your defense or negotiate a penalty. An experienced criminal defense attorney knows what information the government will need to prove your guilt. The defense attorney will also know what information you need to prove your innocence, including whether there are any legal rules justifying your actions.

If you are suspected of driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, you may be arrested for DUI (driving under the influence) or DWI (driving while intoxicated). A DUI conviction has serious consequences (for example, losing your driving privileges or jail); but an experienced DUI attorney can often get the charges dropped or reduced, or may be able to negotiate lesser penalties depending on your circumstances and your past history.

If the police give you a ticket for violating traffic laws (quite often for speeding), you may require the services of a traffic ticket lawyer to help you through traffic court. Traffic ticket lawyers know which people to talk to at court and the kind of deals they are willing to make. The traffic ticket lawyer will also know the specific types of proof the officer must submit to the court and when there is not enough information to support the traffic

Chris Dulle is highly regarded in the legal and judicial community as a capable, honorable and admirable criminal defense attorney, including DUI & DWI law.

I contacted Attorney Dulle to assist a friend of mine with a legal issue. I was impressed with Attorney Dulle's expertise. He was well versed in the law, and also very easy to speak with about a difficult situation. I knew quickly that he was the attorney we wanted for our case. He knows what he's doing, and he's easy to work with. I endorse this lawyer.

Chris is as solid as they come. Whether it is a complex legal issue surrounding a traffic stop, or constitutional violation of his clients' rights, he's knowledgeable of recent developments in the law, and, is able to communicate complex legal principles to colleagues and someone off the street. Chris finds solutions for his clients that others would miss.

Chris is as well known and as well respected as any attorney in the courthouse. Works hard, hustles, and gets the job done. An attorney with real integrity isn't always the easiest thing to find, but Chris has got it. Can't go wrong with choosing him for your attorney.
Thomas Wooldridge, Criminal defense Attorney on Oct 22, 2015

I have known Chris Dulle since law school. Chris is one of the hardest working lawyers I have ever met. He will fight for a client long after most attorneys will have called it quits. If you have a criminal allegation against you anywhere near St. Louis and he is not your attorney then you have made a mistake. This guy is a legit legal warrior.

Chris Dulle is one of the hardest working attorneys in the St. Louis area metro region. He is a zealous advocate for all his clients. When I moved to the St. Louis area he was one of the first names that came up when I asked about respected criminal defense attorneys in St. Louis. Having now had the privilege of seeing him in court I can see why. I would recommend him to anyone facing criminal charges.

Chris is a good and experienced attorney. He knows his way around the courtroom and does a good job for his clients. If you are facing a DWI or other type of criminal charge you would be in good hands with him.

Chris is an excellent Criminal Defense attorney in the St. Louis Metro Area. I recommend Chris for all criminal legal matters.
