Can I pay my fine for dwi and avoid jail time?

Answered by attorney Tristan Nicolas Legrande
DUI/DWI lawyer at LeGrande Law
Without knowin additional details regarding your case, the county, and court you are in, it is impossible to predict. However, it is not a good idea to just pay the fine for a DWI offense without having a lawyer review the evidence, facts and circumstances of your case. You may have defenses. You may be able to keep it off of your record completely - with no prior criminal history, or even no prior DWI's, you may have options available to you as a first time offender.   Even a conviction for a DWI can have lifelong consequences. Hire a lawyer you trust to defend your case. If you cannot afford a lawyer, consult with your appointed attorney before you make a decision.  Good luck.
