DWI & Hit and Run Dismissed Despite High BAC

In DWI cases, many people decide to plead guilty at their first court appearance, thinking nothing can be done. However, working with a defense lawyer can always help. Recently, we were able to get DWI and hit and run charges dismissed for a woman involved in a car accident, who failed field sobriety tests and tested at a .15 BAC.

Due to the high BAC, our client faced jail time, and if awarded driving privileges at all, she’d need to have an interlock device installed. Fortunately, there was nothing but property damage, and after four or five court hearings we secured dismissal of all charges.

The outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any similar or future case.
