Protecting Your Driving Privileges

For many people, the consequences of a DWI/DUI conviction that have the most immediate impact are those that limit their ability to drive. In Louisiana, you may be forced to have an ignition interlock device installed in your vehicle after a DWI conviction, even if it is your first. Ignition interlock devices require the driver to submit a BAC sample that is below a certain limit for the vehicle to be able to start.

Apart from being an inconvenience, ignition interlock devices are also a financial burden. You need to secure the device and pay for it. The state will only grant you driving privileges once you have shown verifiable proof that the device is installed in your vehicle. Considering all of the other fines, costs and fees associated with a DWI conviction, the last thing someone needs is more expenses.

A Robust Defense Is Your Best Option For Avoiding An Ignition Interlock Device

The only way to prevent having to deal with the cost and inconvenience of an ignition interlock device is to put forward the strongest defense against your DWI charges. Do not take you charges lightly or you may find yourself burdened by an ignition interlock device and all of the other consequences of a DWI conviction.

Protecting Your Driver’s License Against DWI Charges

Many people who are charged with DWI/DUI have never had more than a speeding ticket before. The reality of being arrested and charged with a crime is an unsettling and foreign experience for these people. Most people simply want to do whatever is necessary to make the charge go away as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, for many that means accepting whatever deal the prosecutor offers. You do not have to take whatever the prosecutor is offering. There are many ways to effectively fight DWI charges. Just because the police have a BAC reading does not mean that you will be convicted.

We Know How To Fight DWI/DUI Charges

An effective DWI defense can call into question a wide range of legal issues that can derail the case against you, including:

• Did the police officer have probable cause to pull you over in the first place?
• Was the officer properly trained in field sobriety testing?
• Did some other factor cause you to fail field sobriety testing?
• Was the Breathalyzer properly calibrated?
• Was the officer properly trained in administering the Breathalyzer test?
