DUI / DWI Defense Attorneys
Matthew J. Ruff operates his Torrance DUI Attorney practice from 3110 Maple Dr., Suite 103 in Torrance, California, bringing over 30 years of experience to DUI defense. A highly-rated attorney with stellar client reviews, Ruff specializes in challenging scientific evidence in DUI cases. He recently won a Hermosa Beach DUI case by exposing violations of Title 17 California Code of Regulations, which governs breath and blood testing procedures. In that case, he successfully argued the officer failed to continuously observe the client for 15 minutes before administering a breath test that showed a 0.12 BAC, resulting in the test being thrown out and the client’s license being reinstated. In another recent victory, Ruff secured dismissal of DUI with injury, refusal, and hit-and-run charges in exchange for a plea to a misdemeanor non-injury DUI with no jail time. His expertise extends to handling cases involving high BAC levels, anonymous 911 calls, license suspensions, and felony charges. Ruff offers free consultations at 310-686-1533 and handles cases throughout Southern California.
