DWI/DUI
A drunk driving (DWI/DUI) conviction can cost you your freedom, your driving privileges — including the loss of your commercial driver's license (CDL) — high fines and very high insurance premiums.
We represent clients who failed a field sobriety test or a breathalyzer test. If your blood alcohol content (BAC) was above .08, you want us on your side. We can assist you with the following:
- License suspension or revocation hearing (sometimes called an Administrative or DMV Hearing)
- DUI/DWI defense
- Hardship license for going to and from work
- Probation
- Plea negotiations
- We can also handle suspended drivers' license matters and other serious traffic offenses.
We offer experienced representation from attorneys who genuinely care about you and your freedom. We understand the difficulties you face, and we want to help you get through them. We are always thinking of ways to secure your freedom or lessen the consequences as much as possible. We represent you as we would want to be represented.
ADMINISTRATIVE HEARINGS
If you have been arrested for drunk driving, you are already aware that you are facing criminal penalties. However, you may also be subject to civil penalties, including the loss of your driving privileges. These civil penalties are completely separate from any DUI/DWI criminal charges.
