LET A DUI/DWI RUIN YOUR LIFE DWI, DUI, OUI A DWI (a.k.a. a DUI or OUI) is the
most serious traffic related charge most people are likely to get. It may
start with a minor accident or from a traffic stop but a DUI/DWI arrest will
definitely ruin you night and unless handled right could cost you your job and
maybe even your liberties. Many states have mandatory jail time beginning
with a first arrest. All require jail time for repeat offenders. If
you get convicted, this is a charge that will stay on your driving/criminal
record FOR LIFE. Regardless of the Blood Alcohol Content read (BAC) you can
beat almost any DWI. A carefully examination of the basis for the stop
and procedures followed by the officer can be the way to get your DWI
dropped.You should hire a lawyer for a drunk driving charge because the stakes
are high and time is limited. Most states suspend your drivers licence
automatically unless you file the right forms to contest the automatic lifting
of the licence. And a DUI/DWI can lead to employment issues such as being
able to hold certain jobs or operate a company vehicle. This site gives you the
details of how a DUI/DWI can be beaten and defenses available to you.
Whether you took the tests or not, remember the state has to prove its case but
an experienced lawyer who knows the ins and outs of the system is always
preferable to going it alone. Remember that drinking and driving (at least for
those over 21) is not a crime. Driving under the influence or when
intoxicated is against the law. But the state has to prove that you were
drunk. That you had a few drinks is not against the law in ANY
state. |
