State v. S.B.

June, 2018
Charges: Fourth Degree DWI - Controlled Substance

Plea to an amended count of careless driving. The sentence was consistent with a standard first-time DWI offense - meaning, no jail or community service, minimal fine, and complete the DWI one-day program and MADD victim impact panel. Point being, the client didn't have to earn the careless driving with a more serious punishment. And, most importantly, because this was a controlled substance DWI, the client's license was never revoked. Achieving a non-DWI outcome in such an instance is rare because prosecutors care deeply about getting a record to enhance any future DWI's. After following the guidance of Mr. Gempeler, the client took the proactive steps necessary and provided the information about his studies and future career that were leveraged to get this incredible result.
