So? You Need A DWI Lawyer?

So you had a beer with your dinner and then tried to drive home. Not really a big deal unless you get pulled over for that busted tail light and end up with a DUI arrest. There you are sitting in county lock up all because you turned down the after dinner mint. You need a DWI lawyer and you need one fast.

Having never needed a DUI lawyer before however you should be forgiven if you do not have the phone number for one memorized or even what to look for in a good DWI lawyer.
So? You Need A DWI Lawyer?

So you had a beer with your dinner and then tried to drive home. Not really a big deal unless you get pulled over for that busted tail light and end up with a DWI arrest. There you are sitting in county lock up all because you turned down the after dinner mint. You need a DWI lawyer and you need one fast.

Having never needed a DWI lawyer before however you should be forgiven if you do not have the phone number for one memorized or even what to look for in a good DWI lawyer.

Perhaps you could ask the officer for a recommendation; but really do you want to use a DWI lawyer recommended by the arresting officer? How about calling Uncle Ernie? He drinks so much he is bound to know a good DWI lawyer. Again, that may be a bad idea. So what do you do?

The first thing you do is not talk to the police. Anything you say can be used against you, you know. Then begin looking around as soon as possible for a lawyer that regularly handles DWI cases.

DWI laws can be very strict and that single beer can cost you the loss of your driver’s license, fines that are higher than a years' worth of mortgage payments and several hours of your life in a DWI school or program where you will be treated as if you regularly ingest massive quantities of alcohol. So a good DWI lawyer is needed here.

Choose a DWI lawyer with at least five years experience representing defendants against DWI charges in the county you are facing charges in. Not the lawyer Great Aunt Bernice used to write up her will.

A DWI lawyer with some scientific knowledge or education is also helpful to dispute the chemical analysis of the breathalyzer test or other tests as well.
