Frequently asked questions
Missouri starts an administrative suspension separate from the criminal case — you have only 15 days from arrest to request a hearing to save your license. Talk to an attorney immediately.
A DWI is a criminal case with evidence (breath/blood tests, stop procedure, field sobriety) that an attorney must review before any strategy is possible. That's why we start with a consultation rather than a flat online quote.
Sometimes — outcomes depend on the stop's legality, test procedures, and your record. Suppressed evidence or procedural defects can lead to reduced charges or dismissal.
Missouri allows expungement of a first-time DWI 10 years after conviction if you've stayed clean. Avoiding the conviction in the first place is far better — which is why the defense matters.
Request a consultation. An attorney reviews your arrest details, the administrative deadline, and your options before quoting the defense — no obligation.
