We place the highest priority on protecting our clients’ rights and interests, particularly when faced with such serious consequences.

First time OWI convictions can carry the following penalties:

• Fines of $100-$500

• Community service for a maximum of 360 hours
• Mandatory suspension of driver’s license for up to six months
• Immobilization of vehicle

In addition to criminal penalties, an OWI conviction can cause you to lose your job or have difficulty finding employment and your insurance provider may raise your rate. If your license is suspended, your everyday life will be disrupted, making the smallest tasks and errands difficult. Additionally, if your OWI resulted in an injury, you may also face a civil lawsuit.
