Many people ask themselves, “do I need an attorney?” There are risks and costs involved in all stages of the criminal process. Hiring a good lawyer can save you thousands of dollars later, or prevent a similar incident from having a catastrophic effect on your life. Effective DWI representation can mean the difference between a standard plea agreement and significantly reduced charges or dismissal.
The consequences of being charged with DWI should not be minimized. The stark reality is that in Minnesota there is what can best be described as a zero tolerance for an individual who is charged with driving while intoxicated or driving under the influence. Penalties associated with these crimes are extremely significant. You need to understand that you can face jail time, significant fines and a long term loss of your driver’s license.
