NOTE: This site is here as a resource for DUI and DWI research. It is not meant to serve as, or replace, DUI and DWI Lawyers. If you are researching DUI's because you have been charged with a DUI or DWI - you should speak to a DUI Lawyer. The DUI or DWI laws in most states carry mandatory jail sentences and driver's license suspension. Only a DUI Attorney with the necessary experience can evaluate your case fully. A qualified DUI Lawyer or DWI Lawyer can tell you what legal defenses you may have available in your DUI or DWI case. The DUI Lawyer will also be able to tell you if your state has alternative resolution programs available for DUI - this is a program where you may take classes, do community service etc. and the charges are expunged.
