Protect Your License. Prepare Your Defense.
- First-time and repeat DWI charges

- Test-refusal allegations
- License revocation and implied-consent review
- Vehicle-related consequences
- Alcohol- and drug-related driving allegations
Look Beyond the Test Result
The reported alcohol concentration does not answer every question. The reason for the stop, the basis for arrest, the testing procedure, and the supporting records each deserve review. Rob and his team examine the sequence of events and identify legal or factual issues that may affect the use or weight of the evidence.
Address the License Issue Early
The criminal case and a challenge to a license revocation can involve separate procedures and deadlines. Waiting for the criminal court date may leave important work undone. Bring the revocation notice and any temporary-license paperwork so the available review process can be assessed alongside the criminal defense.
First Offenses, Repeat Charges, and Refusal Allegations
A first DWI, a charge involving prior history, and an alleged test refusal can present different issues. Rob and his team review the specific counts, prior court and license records, and the supporting evidence. The proposed approach should reflect the actual case rather than a standard assumption about every DWI.
Build the Strategy Around Your Circumstances
Your record, the charge, the evidence, and your priorities all affect the approach. Rob and his team evaluate potential challenges and proposed resolutions with attention to driving, employment, family needs, and other consequences. You should understand the strengths and risks of your options before choosing a course.
Know What Representation Will Involve
The consultation identifies the criminal file, any license notice, and the next dates. Rob and his team explain the proposed work and fees, including which related proceedings are covered. That clarity helps you make a practical decision about representation when several concerns may need attention at once.
Questions About DWI & DUI Defense
Can I Challenge a DWI If I Took the Test?
A completed test does not eliminate the need to examine the stop, arrest, testing process, or the prosecution’s proof. Whether a challenge is available depends on the records and the circumstances of your case.
Does My Criminal Case Automatically Address My License Revocation?
The proceedings can be separate. Have the revocation notice reviewed promptly rather than assuming the criminal court will decide every license issue. The Learn guide linked on this page explains the covered Minnesota review deadline in more detail.
What Should I Have Ready for the Consultation?
Have the citation or complaint, the license-revocation notice, release conditions, court dates, and any paperwork about your vehicle available. Explain how driving restrictions could affect your work and daily responsibilities.
