What To Do If Charged With a DUI?

        I want to talk real briefly about what you need to do if you are charged with an operating while intoxicated offense in the State of Wisconsin.  The most important thing to do is get in touch with an attorney as quickly as possible.  There is a reason for this.  If you have refused the test, you have 10 days to request a refusal hearing.  If you do not request that hearing within 10 days your license will be revoked for 12 months starting 30 days after the date that you were notified that you had refused the chemical test.  The other reason that you want to call an attorney right away is that once you get your breath results or your blood results back on the chemical test you have 10 days to request an administrative suspension review hearing with the department of motor vehicles to keep your license valid while your case is pending.  If you do not request this hearing your license will be pulled 30 days after you get notice of the results of the chemical tests.  If you are a truck driver this could be devastating to your career.  If you rely on unlimited driving privileges for your job you would rather have your license pulled on your terms and not the state’s so getting in touch with an attorney and filing these requests is absolutely critical.  Another reason to contact an attorney is because many times police departments will destroy booking room videos and squad videos if you do not request them in a timely fashion.  Getting ahold of these things can help your case because in most cases it is your word against the police officer.  What we are looking for in putting together your defense is a way to establish that you were telling the truth.  The best way to do this is with video evidence taken by the police officer at the time that you were booked.  Those are the most important reasons to call an attorney right away.  Additionally, there may be additional implications if you are an out of state driver that you need to know about or that you need to address before you go back home.  For all of these reasons, calling an attorney is always your best route.  You may not need one and we’ll be honest with you if you don’t.  However, it will certainly be helpful to give us a call for a complimentary consultation.
