State v. E.L.
June, 2026
Charges: Misdemeanor 4th Degree DWI Charges
Resolution:
Plea to an amended count of failing to drive with due care as a misdemeanor and all DWI counts were dismissed. Typically, on first-time DWI offenses, any plea to a non-DWI crime is to careless driving. But here at North Star, we push for better and often get it, such as in this case. For an individual going through the immigration system, achieving such a fantastic result was critical to his chances of successfully navigating the ever-evolving immigration laws. By taking the big picture approach and knowing how to push for the best possible deal - not just a sometimes easy to achieve careless driving - the North Star team is always fighting for our clients and getting the best results possible.
