- Gegner Law Office:
Driving under the influence of alcohol, also known as Operating While Intoxicated (OWI), illegal drugs, or other controlled substances carries serious penalties in the State of Wisconsin. You can acquire hefty fines, lose your license, and your vehicle as well as your freedom.
- VanWagner & Wood:
Being arrested for drunk driving can be a terrifying experience, particularly if you have never been arrested previously. If that is the case in your situation, then this was your very first drunk driving arrest, which means it is your first OWI offense.
- Guelzow & Winston:
If you have been charged with drunk driving, you could be facing large fines, driver's license suspension, or time in jail. Defend yourself against these consequences.
- Herrick & Hart:
What if I am charged with drunk driving?
You should make sure you appear on the court date. If it is a second or subsequent offense, there is a mandatory jail sentence on conviction in Wisconsin. If you have failed an alcohol test, you will receive an automatic six month suspension separate from the suspension you may receive from the drunk driving ticket. This suspension will start thirty days after the failure unless you request a review hearing. You have ten days from the failure to request this hearing. The minimum suspension for a drunk driving ticket is six months.
- Michael Rajek:
How can I plead "not guilty" if I am guilty? By saying "not guilty" when the judge asks for your plea. It's your right. A "not guilty" plea in court simply means you're not going to admit anything, and that it's up to the prosecution to prove it's case -if it can - by legally obtained and legally admissible evidence.
