Legal Services as DUI/DWI Lawyers MN

One of the essential points an individual charged with violation of Minnesota DUI/DWI laws has to consider is that when one is arrested for such an offense, he will be faced with two separate charges: one filed with the proper criminal courts of the state and another which is lodged with the Minnesota Department of Public Safety.

Cases filed with the criminal courts deal with the drunk-driving offense per se and are commenced therein for purposes of determining the degree of the offense charged and the corresponding penalties and punishments to be imposed. Those cases falling under the jurisdiction of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety deal with charges against the driving rights and privileges of the client.

Since DUI/DWI violations are specialized cases, there is a need for immediate legal action on the part of the individual charged with the offense in order that his rights and interests may be properly safeguarded and legal alternatives may still be sought and prevent his imprisonment and other severe penalties. The diverse range of our legal experience allows us to cover all these aspects in the defense and litigation of drunk-driving charges.

• We defend and litigate all degrees of DUI/DWI violations: First Degree DWI, Second Degree DWI, Third Degree DWI, and Fourth Degree DWI. Such legal representation includes engaging in alternative dispute resolution (ADR) proceedings to settle or negotiate liabilities especially in the case of Third and Fourth Degree DWI which are penalized with lighter punishments.
• We are experienced in the application for jail alternatives for clients who have been charged and subsequently convicted of DUI/DWI violations. Even though there is conviction, there are still ways in which liberties would not be impaired such as electronic monitoring, city jail, work release or work furlough, sober living, or alcohol or drug rehabilitation.
• We provide legal protection and assistance for repeat offenders, assist in the protection of the client’s properties especially the vehicle involved from forfeiture and from impounding of license plates.
