Warrensburg DWI Lawyers
- Losh-North, Troy:
A DUI/DWI charge in Missouri may result in harsh consequences. Depending on the nature of the alleged offense, you could be facing heavy fines, license suspension, license revocation, probation, installation of an ignition interlock device and even serious jail time. Too many tickets can result in license suspension or even revocation.

You should consult an attorney for individual advice regarding your own situation.
Administrative and Criminal Processes
Essentially, there are two DWI defense cases going on simultaneously. The administrative component means a hearing with the Department of Motor Vehicles must be scheduled in 15 days if you submitted to chemical testing and 30 days if you refused it. If the hearing is not scheduled in time, you will automatically lose your license prior to any conviction. If you are under 21 and blew between a .02 and a .08, then the Zero Tolerance laws could result in automatic loss of your license as well.

Law Office: One of the most frequent questions we hear is, "What are
the benefits of hiring an attorney for a traffic ticket?"
One of the benefits is that by doing so often no points will be
assigned to your license. This can save you thousands of dollars on
increased insurance rates.
Another benefit of having no points on your license is eliminating your
chances of having your license suspended. A suspended license can
prevent you from doing many things in life, such as working, going to
school or simply having fun.
