DRIVING WHILE INTOXICATED

In 2009, Louisiana will follow the growing trend in the United States to stiffen DWI penalties.  The new DWI laws stiffen fines, impose jail time even on first offenders, set longer probationary periods, mandate high fees and the installation of expensive breathalyzer equipment in motor vehicles, and generally make even a first offense DWI a very serious charge.  That is why it is more important now than ever to get quality, experienced representation from an attorney who regularly practices in traffic court.

Like doctors and other professionals, most attorneys specialize in one or a few closely related fields.  Most attorneys will go their whole careers without ever trying even one DWI case!  Don’t trust your future, your driving record, and your insurance rates to an attorney who “thinks he can handle your case.”  Trust an attorney who KNOWS he can handle your case quickly and efficiently!  André  Guichard has nearly 30 years experience handling traffic and DWI cases and he knows the law!

We believe that our fees are the most reasonable in the city.  We represent our clients with perfect efficiency for less than many attorneys will charge you to just “give it a shot.”  All of our DWI cases are handled on a flat fee basis, which means the price we quote you is the price you pay—no matter what! 

If we accept your DWI case, we will also handle the DPS hearing on your driving privileges completely FREE OF CHARGE.  You only pay the police officers’ witness fees.

Many people faced with DWI charges also often believe that there is little that any attorney can do for them.  Many falsely believe that the court will simply believe whatever the police officer says and there will be little an attorney can do to change that.  Don’t believe that!  An experienced attorney like Mr. Guichard will challenge the officer’s testimony, dispute the results of the Field Sobriety Tests and Intoxilyzer 5000 test, and confront the prosecution’s case with effectiveness and zeal.  Don’t give up without a fight!  We can and will fight for you!

The most important thing to remember when you are faced with a DWI is to ACT QUICKLY!  You only have 15 days from the date of your arrest to request the administrative hearing,  If you fail to request the hearing timely, YOU WILL LOSE YOUR DRIVING PRIVILEGES WITHOUT THE RIGHT TO HAVE A HEARING.  Don’t let that very important deadline pass! Call Mr. Guichard TODAY for a free evaluation and a precise, guaranteed price quote for your case.  Let’s get to work!
