DWI/DWI Drunk Driving Attorney

If you were arrested on suspicion of drunk driving in Kansas City, Kansas, you should take the roadside breathalyzer test. If you were picked up 50 feet away in Kansas City, Missouri, and you have not had a prior DWI, you shouldn't take the test.

That is just one of many legal complexities people living near the border of our two states face. For effective defense against DUI/DWI/drunk driving charges in either Kansas or Missouri, please contact my law firm for a free initial consultation and case evaluation.

Representing the Wrongfully Injured
and the Unjustly Accused
Call (816) 561-4040

I am criminal defense attorney James H. Bell. For nearly 30 years, I have successfully represented people charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, prescription medications, and illegal drugs in both Kansas and Missouri. I also represent clients charged with traffic offenses, such as speeding, reckless driving, street racing, and hit and run.

I take every DUI/DWI case seriously. Even a first-time conviction can affect your ability to drive, and thus your ability to get to work and earn a living. In addition, any drunk driving conviction can send your insurance rates sky high and may impair your ability to get a job. I will first attempt to get the charges against you dropped or reduced. I will always explore alternatives to incarceration, when available.

To protect your driving privileges, it is important to contact a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible. Strict deadlines exist for filing a request for an administrative hearing to review the circumstances of the arrest and ask for the restoration of driving privileges.

Whether you need help with speeding tickets, a DUI arrest, or reckless driving that caused a car accident, I can help. You can rely on me for effective representation at reasonable rates.
