DWI Information
Given that every DWI case is different, it is not advisable to give a lot of weight to the information you read online about DWI. Most of what you read about DWI won’t even apply to your case.The information could be outdated, applicable to different state laws, written by bots, or written by an SEO content writer in India. We provide some information just to give you an idea of the issues in a DWI case. We advise you hire a DWI lawyer to give you any valuable advice. We offer paid consultations if you don’t or can’t hire a lawyer at this time but just need a little knowledge and advice for your specific case.
Steps After Arrest: Learn about the DWI process and the various steps that should be taken.
Before Court: Depending on your specific case, there may be things we can do now that will help the outcome in your case, such as evaluations and classes. Certainly, we must request the Administrative Hearing.
Hardship License: You may be eligible to obtain a hardship license to continue driving.
Long Term Consequences: DWI is not like a traffic ticket that you pay and be done with. It has lasting effects on your driving and criminal record that can affect your future.
Criminal Record: It is important to protect your criminal record the best way possible.
DWI Expungement: The expungement process is how we remove an arrest and/or conviction from your criminal record.
Employment Issues: Some employers will not hire people with DWIs on their record.
DWI v. DUI: They are essentially the same charge because they fall within the same statute.
Attorney Cost: Our costs very from case to case.
Felony DWI: DWI 3rd and 4th offense is a felony in Louisiana.
DWI Reductions/Dismissals: We try to get the DWI either dismissed or reduced if possible. If we can’t, we try to get it so that an expungement can be filed eventually.
Penalties for DWI: The penalties can include jail time, probation, community service, classes, treatment, license suspension, and more.
