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

Tristan Nicolas Legrande
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.

Can i get charged for a dwi still if the officer did not take me to jail that night?

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
Yes, you can still be charged. If the arrest was only 5 days ago, the most pressing issue is the ALR. If the officer confiscated your DL, he will have sent that paperwork to Austin. So, the clock is ticking. You have only 15 days from the date of arrest to contest the 6 month suspension of your license. I specialize in DWI cases, and can tell you that I handle the ALR on every single DWI case I'm hired on, provided I am hired within that 15 day window. It gives us an opportunity to fight to prevent the suspension. Also, it's our only real opportunity to get live testimony from an officer prior to trial.  As for the arrest, here's what will happen. The hospital should have drawn the blood. It will then be sent to a lab to be tested for the BAC level. Once the report is issued it will be sent to the agency that requested the testing (the arresting agency and/or the DA's office). If the BAC is at or above a .08 either a warrant or a summons will issue for your appearance on the case.  Right now there's a pretty significant backlog for blood testing at the labs. So, it could take up to a couple of months before you hear anything back on the blood. But, don't wait. Again, you can still fight the ALR; and it's an important piece of the discovery process in a DWI defense.

I got a DUI 15 year ago and was going to probation and just left, the county I have a warrant what can I do to clear this?

Mark R. Thiessen
Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen
DUI/DWI lawyer at Thiessen Law Firm
You need to pay the bail through a bail bondsman, get a new court date, and then hire a great DWI lawyer.
