DWI first offense--my son got this last week--i guess my question would be if their is any way that we as parents can get this off his record

Cordt Cullen Akers
Answered by attorney Cordt Cullen Akers (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Akers Firm PLLC
First off, I am so sorry this happened.  It is always difficult for a parent to see their child go through the system, especially when he shows so much promise in completing his education.  Above all, your son's goal should be keeping it off of his permanent record.  The first step is to see if the arrest is a case the government can win.  A good criminal defense lawyer may be able to get the charges dismissed entirely.  If that isn't an option, there is a program called "DWI Pretrial Intervention" by which your son would be supervised for a year and, if he completes everything he is required to complete, the charges will be dismissed at the end.  Not everyone qualifies for this, so it is important to have a lawyer who understands the ins and outs of the program.   All of these options will require an excellent criminal defense/DWI lawyer familiar with the practice where your son is being charged.  Many of us will offer you a free consultation for your sons case, and will give you advice on how to proceed.  Meet with a few lawyers and hire the one you believe is best suited to keep your son's record clean. Good luck, hope I helped! Regards, Cordt Akers Criminal Defense Lawyer

Is it possible for my friends got charged with a DUI but I was the driver?

Your friend needs to consult a criminal defense attorney. Of course they can not charge your friend for a DUI if you were the one driving at the time. It seems rather strange that your friend was charged. There has to be more to the story.
