New Orleans Felony DWI Lawyer
Defending People Against Repeat DWI Charges
For those who have had previous DWI/DUI convictions, a new drunk driving arrest can be charged as a felony depending on the circumstances. Felony charges can carry extended prison terms as part of their sentences among other serious penalties. Even if you have never worked with a New Orleans felony DWI lawyer on past DWI charges, you should, now.
Felony DWI charges for a third DWI within 10 years carry a minimum of one year in prison with a maximum of five years. Other penalties can include:
- Thousands of dollars in fines, costs and legal fees
- Mandatory alcohol dependency counseling
- Loss of your vehicle
- Ignition interlock device
- Community service
For a fourth or subsequent DWI within 10 years, you face similar penalties with the prison term increased to 10 to 30 years.
With so much at stake, a felony DWI charge cannot be ignored or minimized. You need a defense that can help protect you from the very serious penalties this charge carries.
