Driving While Intoxicated (DWI). Technically, DWI is not a “criminal” offense. Rather it is a traffic violation. Therefore, a DWI defendant does not have the right to a jury trial. Yet, even though the offense is not a “crime,” very serious consequences flow from a DWI conviction.
- First DWI conviction = a 3 month to one-year suspension of driver’s license.
- Second DWI conviction = a two-year suspension of driver’s license.
- Third DWI conviction = a 10-year suspension of driver’s license and a mandatory jail sentence of 180 days.
It goes without saying that you need a seasoned DWI attorney if you are facing a DWI charge. The Law Offices of Jonathan F. Marshall have a significant advantage on other lawyers regarding DWI offenses. Marshall Firm lawyers have training in the field sobriety tests that become a vital part of DWI prosecutions. Our training and knowledge of the sobriety tests can be instrumental in demonstrating that the police may not have followed proper procedures in your case. Such information can only help the outcome of your case.
Driving on a Suspended License. In New Jersey, a person cannot drive after his or her driving privileges have been suspended. A conviction for this offense could result in a $500 fine and a further six-month suspension of license. A second offense will result in a mandatory one to five days in jail and a $750 fine. A third offense will result in a mandatory 10 days in jail and $1000 fine. Further penalties may result if the reason for the suspension was due to a DWI. When it comes to a driving while suspended charge, you should not do it alone. You need an experienced traffic attorney.
