Defending Against DUI/DWI Charges
A DUI/DWI conviction is a criminal offense that can cost you hundreds of dollars in fines. It can also mean jail time or community service. Your insurance rates can go up and you can even have your license suspended, making it difficult or impossible to get to school or work, pick up your children or get groceries. If you are stopped and arrested, you need to contact a lawyer with extensive experience in helping those charged with driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Don't Plead to Anything Until You Talked to an Attorney
In West Virginia, you can be stopped and charged with driving under the influence or driving while intoxicated. Also, under West Virginia's implied consent law, if you refuse to take a secondary chemical test when stopped, you can face a license suspension. One thing is certain in either case; you should never, ever go to court or plead to anything without legal representation. Why? The evidence, or lack of evidence, could be on your side.
