If you are convicted of a Class A Misdemeanor, there can be up to one year in jail.
DWIs (Driving While Intoxicated) is a Class A Misdemeanor. A lawyer can:
-
Get it reduced to a violation
-
Help you get a temporary license
-
Get other traffic tickets such as speeding dismissed
-
Make sure you don’t have to put in on a job application that seeks crime
All you need is a couple of drinks. But you can fight the stop of your car, quality of breath or blood tests and other tests. DWI will result in revocation of your license. They can even keep your car.
DWAI (Driving While Ability Impaired) means you drank less that DWI. But DWAI is not a crime.
