Minnesota DWI Arrest (What Should You Do?)



As a Minnesota Criminal Defense Lawyer --- the cases I get the most questions about (and the number of cases I work on most are Drunk Driving charges --- combine that with my experience as a former prosecutor and you can be assured I know a little something about this dilemmas.  Here are some answers to the most common questions:

WHAT TO DO IF STOPPED BY THE POLICE FOR A MINNESOTA DWI?

  1. BE POLITE (The officer is the Judge at the side of the road;)
  2. DO NOT SUBMIT TO ANY FIELD SOBRIETY TESTS, INCLUDING A HAND-HELD PBT;
  3. SUBMIT TO A BREATH CHEMICAL TEST (A REFUSAL TO SUBMIT WILL LEAD TO A WHOLE NUTHER CHARGE;)  
  4. NEVER SPECIFY AN AMOUNT OF ALCOHOL THAT YOU HAVE CONSUMED.

IF YOU HAVE BEEN ARRESTED - WHAT THEN?

You next best move is to call the Rolloff Law Office - at (612) 234-1165.  The sooner you get a lawyer on board, the better your chances to earn the best possible outcome for your case.
