DWI Attorneys at the Babcock Law Firm are committed to protecting the
rights of citizens accused of DUI (Driving Under the Influence)
and DWI (Driving While Intoxicated). We stand by each client's
constitutional right to a fair trial and effective legal
representation. If you have been charged with DUI/DWI, it is
important to act within fifteen days of your arrest or your
license may be suspended for a minimum of 90 days, or perhaps
permanently. A qualified Babcock Law Firm attorney will ensure
that you meet the required response time, help to retain valuable
evidence in your case, and develop solid legal strategies for your
defense. Babcock Law Firm's clients depend on us for uncommon
insight and a common sense approach to solving legal problems and
protecting individual rights. We can help to protect your
interests and perhaps save your money, reputation and freedom. According to
Louisiana DUI law, if you are 21 years or older and test with a Blood
Alcohol Concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or more, or are under 21 with
a 0.02% BAC, you are considered legally intoxicated. A DUI/DWI
charge entails two separate and important actions, 1) a civil
action that involves your driving privileges and 2) a misdemeanor
or felony criminal action depending on the charges. D.W.I. is what
the law refers to as an enhanceable offense, meaning the potential
penalties and sentences grow more severe with each subsequent
arrest. In addition to losing your license, your vehicle may be
confiscated and sold, and you may be subject to heavy fines, high
insurance premiums and substantial jail time.
Defense of a DWI/DUI
charge can be quite challenging since there are witnesses (the
police) and scientific evidence (BAC tests) that will be used
against you. The police officers that made the arrest have likely
testified in many D.W.I. trials and know exactly what to say. You
need an attorney at the Babcock Law Firm with the knowledge and
experience to examine these officers aggressively to bring out any
inconsistencies or sloppy police work that could result in a not
guilty verdict for you At Babcock Law Firm we will fight the
formidable odds in a DUI/DWI case by preparing a solid defense
based on:
- analyzing the
facts of your case;
- exploring other
reasons that may have led to your initial stop by police
including any health, weather, or road conditions;
- whether proper
procedures were followed in stopping, testing and charging
you;
- maneuvering
through the complicated maze of procedural, evidentiary,
constitutional and administrative issues; and
- strategies to
minimize the penalties and potential sentence.
Whether you choose
to stand trial or enter a plea bargain will be an important
decision that affects your life and your future. While it is
ultimately your decision, our attorneys will ensure that you
thoroughly understand your options and the implications of your
choices. Drunk driving laws are very complex and the punishments
harsh and serious. You need the support of a legal team who is
experienced with Louisiana laws, procedures, evidence and
sentencing.
