Cristine Beckwith
Cristine Beckwith is the founding attorney at The DUI Law Firm. She began her legal career as a deputy prosecutor in 2004. As a prosecutor, Cristine saw first-hand how those accused of a crime were treated as if they were guilty until proven innocent.
Realizing that she wanted to help people who were facing criminal charges, she soon changed career paths and became a criminal defense attorney. Early in her career, she gained attention from her peers for engineering not guilty verdicts, DUI dismissals, and favorable settlements.
By 2007, she had gained enough referral business to open The DUI Law Firm. Today, her firm maintains the same principles that it was founded on:
- Fierce advocacy
- Keeping clients informed
- Affordable representation
- Fighting until the best possible outcome is achieved
