What is drunk driving? You are probably aware that the charge is called OWI. In Wisconsin that means you were stopped by police for driving while impaired by alcohol, drugs, prescription medication or any combination of those. People sometimes ask a drunk driving attorney if having drinks and then driving is illegal. It is not. It is not legal to drive when you have had so much to drink that you cannot safely operate a motor vehicle.

What is a PAC ticket? PAC means operating a motor vehicle with a prohibited alcohol concentration. If the police thought you were not driving safely and you agreed to a breath and / or a blood test, then you probably received a PAC ticket if the test showed you had exceeded the legal limit. If your test result was .08 or higher, then you had a prohibited alcohol concentration. If you have 3 prior convictions that legal standard is lowered to .02. A drunk driving attorney pays very close attention to these tests. It may be possible to argue that a sample was not accurate. Call to make an appointment and I can advise you on whether this might be a legal option in your case.

I consider myself to be a drunk driving attorney with important experience in aggressively challenging the results of alcohol testing. Another concern is whether the police officer or state trooper correctly explained Wisconsin’s implied consent law. Did you know what you were consenting to? Was it explained adequately? Did you know that you had to consent to each and every test the officer requested? We will go over your answers to these questions when we discuss your case. A review of the evidence and circumstances surrounding your arrest can determine whether I believe you have a defense and the direction it will take if you select me to be your drunk driving attorney.

The consequences of being found guilty of OWI / PAC are very serious in Wisconsin. Even a first offense can change your life. The job of a drunk driving attorney is to have an impact on the charge itself or the penalty. Wisconsin now compels ignition interlock devices on the vehicles of most first-time offenders. Restrictions on your license, loss of a license to drive, fines and jail or prison time are all penalties faced by people who have been convicted.
