drunk driving - attorney

operating while intoxicated - OWI - DUI - Defense

From proactive "zero tolerance laws" (absolutely zero alcohol in a blood alcohol test) to movement towards making a first drunk driving offense a crime in the state of Wisconsin, and Circuit Court judges imposing much harsher jail and prison terms than the sentencing guidelines propose, Wisconsin laws are tough on alcohol and other drug related driving offenses.

Remember: neither an arrest for drunk driving or a refusal to submit to a test is a conviction, but your rights must be defended to have any hope of preventing the problems and issues that can follow an OWI arrest.

Attorney Jonas Bednarek is a Madison WI Criminal Defense Lawyer who will defend you and your rights against any type of drunk driving offense (for example: OWI, Test Refusal, Increased DUI Penalties), any level of driving driving charge, and during all administrative and court hearings, including:

• Challenging whether the initial police stop was legal.
• Arguing to protect your rights during an illegal search and seizure (an arrest is a seizure).
• Defending your right to refuse to submit to a breath or blood test.
• Protecting your driver's license during the administrative hearing.
• Representing you during all court actions, motions, and hearings.
• Seeking the best possible outcome during any negotiations (plea bargains).
• Defending you at trial.
