Being arrested is just the first step in the process. Our attorneys will help guide you through the various steps in the case and explain the relative strengths and weaknesses.
In order to be convicted of a DWI/DUI, the prosecutor must prove
- That there was “operation of a vehicle or vessel,”
- By the defendant,
- While intoxicated, and
- With an alcohol or blood alcohol concentration at or about the statutory limit.

Since this is a criminal case, these elements must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt or the court should find you not guilty. If a prosecutor cannot establish each element beyond a reasonable doubt then the case should be dismissed and the charges dropped.
