What is at Stake?
One of the things we see a lot of in our industry and in our practice are DWI crimes. DWI or driving while intoxicated refers to driving with a blood alcohol content level of .08 or driving under the influence of drugs. You don’t have to be on the road to be caught – operating any recreational and commercial vehicle while intoxicated is against the, including a truck, boat, snowmobile and ATV. If you are faced with a DWI conviction then you could be looking at:
- Possible jail time. Even fourth degree DWI offenses come with jail time in some instances
- Fines. You could be looking at anywhere from $1,000 to $14,000 for a fine
- Community service
- A loss of license. This can impact your career and your social life dramatically and if you require your car for work, then you could also be risking your job
- A misdemeanor or felony offense. DWI arrests are usually considered misdemeanor or gross misdemeanor offenses. However, first degree DWI is a felony.
