DUI Attorney Clinton MS
What should I do if I obtain a DUI?
Attorney Franks: The initial thing you need to do is take a seat and write out an explanation of what happened for your documents. As time passes you will certainly fail to remember the subtle details really crucial to the DUI Attorney. Its the absolute first thing you do. The date you go out the jail go to a coffee shop with a notebook and also draw up every little thing you recall from the state of the roadway to the moment to the weather to the police officer to the examination done. If you do not know the name of the examination describe it. After that call me and establish a consultation and also bring all documentation you got from the authorities prison or bail bondsman.
Will I immediately lose my license with a DUI?
Attorney Franks: Just if you are not innocent of a DUI and also you do not go the non-adjudication path. If you are found guilty of a DUI you will give up your license for 120 days. There's no other way around it aside from non-adjudication. There are particular needs that have to be met if you want to go the non-adjudication path and not everyone gets it. For example a commercial vehicle driver would certainly not receive non-adjudication.
If my license is put on hold can I obtain a restricted license so I can go to my job?
Attorney Franks: Regrettably in MS no you cant get a limited license if you are found guilty or you beg guilty without the non-adjudication. Nevertheless if you go the non-adjudication route you can place a breathalyzer in your auto and whenever you wish to start it you have to blow in it and it makes note of whether you have booze on your breath. That is the only method to get any kind of limited license since you need to surrender your regular motorists license and acquire an interlock limited permit. Or else you'll be accused of driving while your license is put on hold.
How much time is my instance going to take?
DUI Attorney Franks: That differs from court to court and also its a complicated inquiry. If you're talking about the date you're detained to the date the trial happens at the local court you're probably checking out 3 to four months. That's the basic duration and also there might be continuations involved. The state may request a continuance which can expand it out an additional month or 2 or 3. In the event you're doing an appeal where you plead nolo contendere its most likely going to be extended out an additional six months due to the fact that you're in an entire different court and also you're beginning the procedure all over. It varies since the court tells us when they will hear it.
How much time will a DUI stay on my record?
Attorney Franks: Lets state you obtain a DUI first on January 1 2017 and you obtain an additional DUI on December 31, 2017. Those 2 DUIs are going to stack and also the second one will end up being a DUI 2nd. Nonetheless if you got a DUI on the 1/1/17 and you got one more DUI on January 1, 2025 the 2025 DUI would certainly be a DUI first. They remain on your record for five years. They don't entirely disappear in that they're there and we can still see it. Nonetheless its not impacting your insurance coverage. You have the option of removing the DUI if you fulfill particular needs after five years which would take it off of your record.
