DWI & MISDEMEANOR OFFENSES

Aggressive DWI Attorney

If you have a misdemeanor, felony, or DWI pending, please call, email, or come in as soon as possible. It is crucial to get ahead of your DWI or criminal case. Virginia Carter will help you understand the complex legal system, and walk you through the process, step by step, from start to finish–from arrest to trial.

Driving While The Influence

Step 1

One of the first steps in this process is the ALR license hearing. You or our office must set up a hearing within 15 days of your arrest to contest your license suspension. It is very important to start the process in the right direction. Doing this will make everything else go smoother.

Step 2

Next, you are probably eligible to get an “occupational driver’s license” if your driver’s license is suspended at the ALR hearing. This license enables you to drive to work, home, school, and perform essential household duties. You may be allowed to drive up to 12 hours in any 1 day for the entire period of suspension.

Step 3

The next step is to get a court date, see all the government’s evidence, including the video of your stop, and get the legal ball rolling. There will be many court dates before this process is over. The court will require both the attorney and the client to attend all court dates, or the judge may order a warrant for your arrest.

Step 4

Take a plea in your dwi. This case MAY be on your record forever. Depending on the circumstances, you may be eligible for deferred adjudication.

Step 5

The final step is to take probation or go to trial. With probation, classes, community service, and evaluation are required. If you perform all the tasks beforehand, the Judge may consider a lower fine, less probation, allow you to serve jail time instead of probation, and other options. If you take probation, there will be a fine and court costs, a once-a-month (at least) check-in with a probation officer, and the tasks required by the Judge and Probation. If you decide to go to trial, the case will be put on the trial docket, and the case could be continued for a couple of weeks to a year. The trial process is not for everyone. You and Virginia Carter will look at your video, talk about the State’s evidence and probation or jail-time offer, and then discuss the pros and cons of a trial so that you can make the best decision for yourself.
