The Criminal Process After an Impaired Driving Arrest

One of the most common concerns about an impaired driving arrest is whether appearing in court is mandatory. After being charged, the first court date will generally be in two weeks. This is only a first appearance. A trial date will be set for later on. In most cases, one of our lawyers will be able to appear in court for you during the first appearance.

While the process is going on, we will be happy to answer your questions and explain issues such as employment concerns, driving privileges, car impoundment, mandatory minimum sentencing guidelines, fines and your criminal record.
