Business Details
We have protected the reputations of Oregon drivers for over 70 years of combined DUI defense experience. Our legal team includes four former deputy district attorneys who bring insider prosecution experience to every case. We specialize exclusively in DUII defense throughout Deschutes, Crook, and Jefferson Counties and across Oregon. Our attorneys understand both the criminal court process and the separate DMV administrative proceedings that threaten driving privileges. We have successfully obtained DMV hearings with administrative law judges to fight license suspensions ranging from 90 days to lifetime revocations. Our deep knowledge of current search and seizure protocols allows us to identify procedural errors that can minimize charges.

We provide aggressive representation for first-time offenders facing mandatory minimums and felony-level repeat offenses alike. Since plea bargains are prohibited in Oregon DUI cases, we prepare every case for trial to secure the best possible outcome. Jason Short has been recognized as a 2019 Top 10 DUI Attorney in Oregon for Client Satisfaction by the American Institute of DUI/DWI Attorneys. We offer free, no-obligation consultations at our offices in Bend, Salem, Hillsboro, and Portland or after hours by appointment. Our commitment is to guide clients through this difficult process with integrity, professionalism, and relentless advocacy.

Clients receive dedicated advocacy to mitigate jail time, fines, and mandatory rehabilitation requirements.
DMV Hearing Representation
We obtain DMV hearings with administrative law judges to contest driver's license suspensions ranging from 90 days to lifetime revocation. Our attorneys navigate the separate administrative process to protect driving privileges while criminal cases proceed. This specialized representation prevents automatic license loss after a DUII arrest.
High BAC Defense
We defend clients arrested with blood alcohol levels of .15 percent or higher facing enhanced mandatory minimum fines of $2,000. Our lawyers scrutinize search and seizure procedures to identify protocol violations that may reduce charges. This focused defense addresses the heightened penalties for aggravated DUII offenses in Oregon.
Repeat DUI Defense
Our attorneys handle second, third, and subsequent DUI offenses carrying escalating fines, extended license suspensions, and potential felony prison sentences. We develop comprehensive strategies for cases where plea bargains are prohibited and mandatory minimums apply. Clients receive experienced representation for the most severe drunk driving allegations.
