After a DUI arrest, a lot of anxiety comes from not knowing what's going to happen, and what you should do next.
For those people who don't want to read a lot of text but would rather see a diagram explanation of the entire Sonoma County DUI process, Jake searched the internet for a good DUI lawyer diagram which can show how it all starts, where a person arrested for DUI is in the process, and what can happen next.
He didn't find anything adequate and decided to write his own flowchart depicting all kinds of directions which a Sonoma County DUI case may take, from police stop and DUI arrest to Santa Rosa court appearances, and from the pink temporary license, to DMV hearing, to driving again.
