Driving While Impaired (DWI) is the most serious misdemeanor charge in North Carolina. North Carolina is one of the toughest states in the country when it comes to prosecuting and sentencing persons charged with DWI. If you have been charged with DWI in Iredell County, you need representation from a lawyer who is experienced in handling all aspects of DWI cases. I have over 14 years experiences in handling all phases of DWI cases, including the following:
· Obtaining pretrial driving privileges
· Filing pretrial motions to contest a 30-day civil revocation
· Requesting hearings with the DMV to contest an alleged willful refusal
· Handling DWI cases and trials in District Court and Superior Court
· Handling felony habitual DWI cases in Superior Court
· Obtaining a North Carolina limited driving privilege
· Representing individuals seeking to have their North Carolina driving privileges reinstated with the DMV
If you hire me to represent you in your DWI charge in Iredell County, I will normally appear in court for you on the first few court dates so that I can obtain all of the discovery materials in your case. Once I have received and reviewed the discovery materials in your case, I will then discuss your case with you in much more detail, and I will discuss the possible defenses and strategies in your case with you in detail. The primary goal in every DWI case is to find a successful defense that will allow us to win your case. However, if you are convicted of DWI, there are five different punishment levels in North Carolina, and the goal is to always attempt to obtain the lowest possible punishment and to obtain the best possible driving privilege.
If you hire me to represent you in your DWI case in Iredell County, I will file any appropriate pretrial motions on your behalf seeking to contest the validity of the stop and seeking to contest the officer’s probable cause to place you under arrest for driving while impaired.
I have successfully defended defendants in DWI cases in Iredell County, North Carolina on a wide range of issues, including arguing that the officer did not have a valid reason to stop my client, arguing that the officer did not have probable cause to place my client under arrest for DWI, arguing that the State could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that my client was appreciably impaired, arguing that the State could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that my client was the driver of the vehicle, and arguing that my client was improperly detained after being arrested for driving while impaired and was denied their rights to have a witness to observe their condition. It is important to understand that each and every case is different and that each case must be evaluated on the specific facts and circumstances for that particular case.
There are many important issues that must be considered in each and every DWI case, and you need a lawyer who has experience and training in these areas. I have over 14 years of experience in handling DWI cases, and I have participated in numerous educational seminars to attempt to always stay up-to-date and informed on the changing legal landscape involving Driving While Impaired in North Carolina.
