Indeed this is not a pleasant chart, I am sorry that you you face the above mentioned fines, penalties and possible jail terms and I want to make sure you avoid dealing with any of it, if there is a chance of making it all go away, Mr. Peyton will find it... Let Mr. Peyton fight for you in a court of law, let him represent you and take on the state attorneys office in their attempt to punish you for a crime "which Mr. Peyton will try to show you were not guilty of committing".

If indeed you were drunk driving or under the influence of drugs or narcotics, Mr. Peyton will work to minimize the damage it will do to your life but, "I" will tell you first hand, if you were driving under the influence you need to address this and show the courts that you are working on correcting it and dealing with the substance abuse that you have been charged with.
You must realize "you could have hurt yourself" or "accidentally killed someone" while driving impaired. It is a scary thought but there are people in prison now for having gotten in an accident and hurt someone while driving intoxicated or under the influence of drugs.
Many celebrities in California have been arrested for DUI and accidents they have been involved in while driving under the influence and even with their star status they were not excused for the violations they had committed. Being a celebrity did not get them out of the legal troubles they faced and in most cases it brought them unwanted public attention of the violation they had committed or been accused of.

Being a celebrity did not get them out of the charges they faced but... in most cases, a good attorney did.

If indeed you were guilty of driving under the influence or blew beyond the legal limit showing you were illegally intoxicated when driving then we need to address this situation and get you into some alcohol or substance abuse programs to show the courts that you are dealing with this and trying to make the corrections needed for your safety and that of the public which shares the same streets you were driving on.

Mr. Peyton has knowledge of the newest laws and tactics to use in approaching your defense and he is eager to defend you and get a great outcome for you. He may suggest you take classes or see a consoler to show the courts you are working to correct the violation you committed. Mr. Peyton will assess your case and advise you to take the correct measures to lessen the impact of your charge when you do face the judge and you can be assured "Mr. Peytton will be standing right there representing you before the judge".
