Understanding the Consequences

Being criminally convicted of a DWI has numerous negative consequences, including:

• Points against your license
• Suspended driver's license
• Increased insurance costs
• Criminal record

Under the Implied Consent Law, you can be required to take a breathalyzer test when pulled over for suspicion of driving under the influence. If you refuse to do so and it is your first refusal, you will lose your license for six months. If it is a subsequent refusal or subsequent offense, you will lose your license for two years.

After you have taken a breath test, you have 30 days to request a hearing from the Department of Safety to protect your driving privileges.

We have the ability to analyze the police officer's actions to determine if they followed the rules and procedures. This includes establishing whether there was a valid stop, reasonable grounds for arrest and proper application of the field sobriety test.
