Former Long Beach Prosecutor Joins Southern California DUI Defense

Former Deputy Long Beach City Prosecutor Shannon Wiezorek has joined Southern California DUI Defense, one of the area’s preeminent DUI law firms. Ms. Wiezorek will be representing clients with Orange County DUI cases, Long Beach DUI cases, and clients accused of drunk driving throughout South Los Angeles and the South Bay.

Ms. Wiezorek spent several years as a Long Beach prosecutor, where she tried some 24 jury trials, including DUI and vehicular manslaughter cases, and prosecuted over a thousand misdemeanor DUI cases. She later served as a deputy district attorney for the county of Los Angeles. She was awarded the prestigious “Prosecutor of the Year” award in 2005.

The addition of Ms. Wiezorek goes along with the law firm’s strategy of using former prosecutors and former police officers to investigate and defend 23152 VC DUI and driving-related cases. The idea is, in defending DUI cases, to take advantage of the experience, knowledge and perspective gained from a law enforcement background.
