FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I’m here to answer your questions related to Colorado DUIs, Minor in Possession (MIP), license suspensions, or sealing and expunging matters. Below are some of the questions I’m most commonly asked by clients.
IS A DWAI THE SAME AS A DUI?
In Colorado, the consequences of a DWAI (Driving While Alcohol Impaired) are less serious than those of a DUI – in every area from possible jail time and fines to community service requirements and car insurance rates. With that in mind, I’ll work hard to reduce your charges from a DUI to DWAI whenever possible.
HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO REQUEST A DMV HEARING?
You must request a DMV hearing within seven days of your arrest in Colorado. If you’ve just been arrested for a DUI, contact me immediately so we can start the DMV appeal process right away.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE ARRECTED FOR FIRST DUI OFFENSE IN COLORADO?
Consequences for a first-time offender depend on a variety of factors, from your blood-alcohol level to your legal history. No matter what the circumstances, you’ll increase your likelihood of receiving a favorable sentence by working with an Aspen DUI lawyer.
WILL I GO TO JAIL AFTER RECEIVING A DUI?
In Colorado, being convicted of a first-time DUI automatically includes a five-day jail sentence. However, it is possible to avoid this jail time by agreeing to probation or enrolling in an alcohol education program. If you’re wondering if you can avoid jail time for your DUI, contact me so we can talk about the specifics of your case and examine your options.
IS YOUR LICENSE SUSPENDED IMMEDIATELY AFTER A DUI?
Upon arrest for DUI, if you refuse to take or fail a blood alcohol test, the law enforcement officer acting on behalf of the DMV will issue a notice of license suspension. In Colorado, you have seven days to request a hearing to review your suspension. The hearing will be scheduled within 60 days, and drivers are often eligible to receive a temporary driving permit during that time. The process before the DMV is separate and distinct from the criminal proceedings. My wealth of DMV expertise and experience makes me an ideal partner to help you navigate this process.
DO I HAVE TO SHOW UP TO COURT IN PERSON?
Failing to appear for your DUI court date in Colorado or Florida can cause a judge to issue a warrant for your arrest. While showing up to court may seem intimidating, working with a defense attorney you trust can help you regain a sense of control. Contact me today so we can determine if my services are a good fit for your needs.
