Joshua M. Dale, Esq.

Trusted by Veterans—I’m a US Army Vet Who Fights for You
As a former US Army Military Police Sergeant (1981-1985, MOS 95B20, honorable discharge), I understand veterans’ challenges. I ran DUI checkpoints and served as a Traffic Accident Investigator at Fort Bragg, earning the Army Good Conduct Medal and Army Achievement Medal. Whether it’s a DUI or criminal case, I’ll fight to protect your benefits, license, and future in Sonoma, Marin, Napa, Solano, and beyond.

Comprehensive DUI & Criminal Defense in Northern CA
For over 30 years, I’ve defended clients from my Monte Rio, CA, home office (since COVID). I started in San Francisco, shaping California Drunk Driving Law, and have since fought ~40 jury trials and hundreds of DMV hearings across the Bay Area’s nine counties. I’m a Founding Member of the DUI Defense Lawyers Association (DUIDLA) and a Member of the National College for DUI Defense, attending multiple summer sessions in the 2000s held at Harvard Law School buildings. A former CDLA specialist/Executive Director (1996-2019), I helped win CDLA v. DMV (2022) for fairer hearings. With a BA in Criminology from Fresno State University (1987, Magna Cum Laude) and JD from Golden Gate University (1992), I’m known for creative litigation and exceptional results where others fall short.

Serving Northern CA’s Bay Area Counties
I offer the best representation in Sonoma, Marin, Mendocino, Napa, and Solano, with preferred courts in Santa Rosa, San Rafael, Ukiah, Napa, Fairfield, and Vallejo. From Monte Rio, I drive to fight for you across the Bay Area.
