The DWI TEAM Process

We are all considered innocent until proven guilty. But with a DWI, is that really how it goes? It feels like you are considered guilty from the moment those lights flash are behind you. When pulled over for a DWI, the officer, and the tests are geared towards one thing. Proving your guilt.

We’ve built a proven process that ensures these tests are administrated properly because officer errors or assumptions should never affect the rest of your life.

Disclaimer: Some cases are different and may not follow this exact process. However, any deviations from any strategy will always be communicated to you.

01. Advocate First...Money Second

When you contact the DWI TEAM, we will listen to your story, create a timeline of events, discuss your concerns, and answer any questions that can be answered at this point in the process. If you decide it’s in your best interest to have an attorney protect you, we will discuss our fees. As home of the DWI Team Best Price Promise you can be sure you are receiving the best value AND service for your money. If needed, we can discuss payment plans, so you don’t have to sacrifice the quality of your representation over money.

02. Initial

Once retained, your legal team will review your case in greater detail. In this conversation, your legal team will review things such as the incident in even more detail, food consumed, medications, medical history, job, volunteering, and much more. If unhappy after that initial conversation, we will either find you a new attorney or refund your money, that’s part of our money back guarantee.

03. Arraignment

This is likely the first time you will be in court. Because of this, it may create a high level of anxiety; however, we will communicate with you before anything happens so that nothing will shock you in court. At the arraignment, the Judge reads the charges you are being faced with, and you may enter a plea of guilty or not guilty. Unless we have already worked out a satisfactory deal prior, we will enter a plea of “not guilty.” We do this because we want to see the evidence BEFORE you plead guilty to anything.

04. Discovery & Fact Gathering

After the arraignment, your legal team will request “discovery” materials from the prosecution, which is all the evidence the government may have against you, such as Tickets, accusatory instruments, admissions, police reports, witness statements, videos, photos, etc. In many situations, if it makes sense, we will have you review these materials to ensure its accurate with your recollection. At this point, This information helps with clarity in building a defense. From there, the legal team may file motions to challenge some of the allegations and preserve your rights to keep the prosecution from using evidence against you.

05. Strategy Development

When reviewing cases, we have a detailed approach. This includes many things, such as Officer Errors/Assumptions, your story as a human, our relationship with the court/prosecution, history, and risk/reward.

06. Negotiations

Plea bargaining is the process that allows your legal team to meet with the prosecutor to understand what they feel are the strengths and weaknesses of your case and try to negotiate a compromise that works to accomplish your goals and overcome your concerns. Negotiation can take place to reduce your charges and penalty by pleading guilty to lesser charges. Plea bargaining may or may not be available to you, but we will help you understand when a plea bargain may or may not be in your best interest. After meeting with the prosecutor, we will communicate that conversation within 24 hours. In addition, to further help you understand, any offer we negotiate will be provided to you in writing.

07. Trial

If you are unhappy with any of the plea bargain options and wish to continue to fight your case, we will meet with our trial litigation team to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of a trial. If needed, we can access expert witnesses such as accident reconstructionists, toxicologists, etc.

The process is overwhelming; however, you can trust our years of focus and experience to ensure that when your case is over, you have peace of mind that you got the best possible result.

Our results speak for themselves.

Our client’s initial offer was to plead guilty to a DWI, with a BAC of .27. This would leave our client with a criminal record for the rest of his life. We believed there was an issue with the stop, so we pushed forward. At hearings the officer said he stopped the vehicle because of a welfare check. He admitted there were no traffic infractions and that the stop was based solely on the concern for the wife. After the hearings, we submitted a memo of law outlining our issues. In the end, the Judge ruled that this was in fact, a bad stop and suppressed all the evidence and as a result, the case was dismissed.

Law enforcement said our client had a BAC of 0.21 and had caused an accident in which he rolled his vehicle. During extensive negotiations with the prosecution, we were able to demonstrate that the accident was caused by inclement weather and our client had extensive equities from prior military combat experience. The result was an offer to a DWAI which is a non-criminal traffic infraction that – due to the accident and high BAC – was significantly outside of the District Attorney’s reduction policy.

Our client was involved in a head-on collision and charged with DWI. In light of her prior DWAI conviction, she faced possible jail time and revocation of her driver license. Our efforts on her behalf yielded a result that pleased the client and her husband. She pleaded guilty to the reduced count of DWAI and a traffic violation, and she avoided the more serious penalties allowed by law.

Our client is an air traffic controller for the Army and holds a security clearance. He was snowmobiling the night of his arrest and was stopped on his way home for operating a snowmobile after midnight. He was arrested and taken to the station where he blew a .23. Our attorneys explained that our client would lose his job/career with a misdemeanor conviction. By presenting legal proof regarding the BAC and equities tied to his career, we were able to obtain an SWAI (no criminal) result, protect our client’s job, and have the record of his conviction sealed.

Our client was arrested for DWI, Leaving the Scene of a Personal Injury Accident, and Failed to Keep Right. It was unclear if our client or his friend was driving. Our client was very concerned as he is in the process of becoming a Corrections Officer and a DWI conviction would make that difficult, if not impossible. Our attorneys discovered our client was in possession of valuable information that could assist the DA’s Office in felony prosecutions. In exchange for our client’s cooperation with all testimony at Grand Jury the DA’s Office dismissed the case in the interests of justice. Our client was left with no criminal record and his career plan of becoming a Corrections Officer intact.
