Knowledgeable OWI Attorneys Providing Information You Can Use
A drunk driving arrest in Wisconsin can result in any number of specific statutory charges, each with different elements that must be proven in order for the prosecutor to obtain a conviction:
- OWI (operating while impaired or intoxicated)
- DWI (driving while intoxicated)
- DUI (driving under the influence)
- Operating under the influence of an intoxicant
- Operating with a prohibited alcohol concentration
- Operating under the influence of a controlled substance
- Operating under the influence of a restricted controlled substance
- Refusing to submit to a chemical test
Equally as important as the specific charge brought against you is your particular case history. Information that relates to a first offense bears almost no relationship to what is important for a fourth offense, and trying to address OWI in a broad fashion will not provide you with the relevant information you need.
