Press release from: Corso & Rhude

Valley law firm’s former Maricopa County Prosecutors are proven Arizona DUI defense attorneys, say Cinco de Mayo means DUI task forces will be out on Valley streets looking for people driving while intoxicated on May 5.

Scottsdale, AZ, April 20, 2012 -- Cinco de Mayo signals the start of summer fun each year. It also means DUI task forces will be out on Valley streets looking for people driving while intoxicated.

Last year, more than 500 Arizonans were arrested for drunk driving during Cinco de Mayo festivities – including 167 extreme DUIs. And while having a designated driver or calling a cab is the obvious safe choice, those arrested during Cinco de Mayo last year failed to use either option.

DUI charges in Arizona are a serious matter. Even a first offense carries mandatory jail. That’s why such cases require experienced Arizona DUI defense lawyers, according to Scottsdale law firm Corso & Rhude.

The firm’s attorneys have extensive Arizona DUI defense experience, having previously prosecuted DUIs, DWIs and OUIs for the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office, City of Mesa Prosecutor’s Office and City of Glendale Prosecutor’s Office. Combined, Corso & Rhude lawyers have handled more than 15,000 DUI cases as prosecutors and defense attorneys.

“An Arizona DUI conviction means mandatory jail time, which makes it imperative to have an experienced DUI defense lawyer on your side,” said Christopher Corso of the Law Office of Corso & Rhude. “Plus, the fines for a DUI can be severe, with the court requiring you to pay to install an ignition interlock device in your vehicle.”

DUI in Arizona is a criminal offense punishable by up to six months in the county jail and up to a $2,500 fine plus an 84 percent surcharge. The experienced Arizona DUI attorneys at Corso & Rhude represent Arizona DUI defense cases and work hard to protect defendants' rights.

The Arizona DUI defense attorneys at the Law Office of Corso & Rhude do everything in their power to protect defendant’s families and advocate for their rights. They have the experience and expertise to deal with DUI charges in Arizona and will fight to get the charges dismissed and preserve their family.

Every DUI defense case in Arizona is different, however, and the outcome is dependent upon the specific facts and circumstances surrounding the DUI charges, which makes having an experienced Arizona DUI defense attorney even more important.

The Law Office of Corso & Rhude has quickly built a reputation for its vigorous defense of clients, using its lawyers’ previous experience with the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office and other prosecutorial agencies to assist its clients with their criminal defense cases.

In addition to DUI defense, the Law Office of Corso & Rhude handles all criminal defense cases, including domestic violence defense, possession of drugs, felony drug charges, photo radar, criminal speeding, disorderly conduct and marijuana possession.
