A DUI / DWI conviction will result in the loss of your driver's license. While your license is suspended, you are unable to drive your car, even to and from work. We strive to help clients retain their driver's license or gain a restrictive license so they can continue working and living their lives as normally as possible. A member of our firm can further discuss with you the specific consequences that a DUI / DWI conviction can have on your driver's license.

• In addition to the loss of your driver's license, you are facing highly increased auto insurance rates if you are convicted of a DUI / DWI.
• If you are in a drunk driving accident, you may be facing more serious consequences, such as increased fines and prison time, depending on the severity of the accident.
• If you are charged with a second or subsequent offense, a conviction will result in jail time.
• If you have an elevated BAC level, this may result in mandatory jail time.
