Gold & Witham - Los Angeles, CA

Focused Exclusively on DUI Defense

Gold & Witham is a boutique law firm in West Los Angeles that specializes strictly in Driving Under the Influence (DUI) defense. Founded in 2000 by partners Jeffrey Gold and Nigel Witham, the firm brings over 40 years of combined legal experience to the table. Unlike general practitioners who handle DUI cases occasionally, Gold & Witham lives and breathes DUI law. We understand the science behind blood and breath tests, the procedures of field sobriety tests, and the administrative complexities of the DMV. Our mission is to save your license, minimize your penalties, and protect your criminal record from the stain of a drunk driving conviction.

A Partnership of Experts

When you hire Gold & Witham, you are hiring the partners directly, not a junior associate. Both attorneys have unique backgrounds that make them formidable advocates in court:

• Jeffrey Gold: A former prosecutor for the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office, Mr. Gold knows exactly how the state builds its case against you-and how to dismantle it.
• Nigel Witham: With a background in British law and decades of practice in California, Mr. Witham is known for his technical expertise and aggressive motion practice.

Comprehensive DUI Services

We handle every type of DUI allegation, from first-time offenses to serious felony charges involving injury. Our services include:

• DMV Hearings: We fight to prevent the automatic suspension of your driver's license at the administrative level.
• Drug DUI: Defending against charges of driving under the influence of marijuana, prescription drugs, or illegal substances.
• DUI with Injury: Handling complex felony cases where an accident has occurred, fighting to avoid jail time and severe restitution.
• Multiple Offenses: providing strategic defense for second, third, and fourth DUI charges where the stakes are significantly higher.

Challenging the Evidence

A DUI arrest does not equal a conviction. We meticulously analyze the evidence, looking for calibration errors in breathalyzers, improper police procedures during the traffic stop, and physiological factors that may have skewed blood test results. We utilize forensic toxicologists and accident reconstruction experts to build a scientific defense for your case. 🚓
