An arrest for DUI/DWI should be considered to be very serious, because even a first-time arrest will result in an automatic seven-day suspension of your driver's license. If you are convicted, you will be facing a significant fine, increased insurance premiums and jail time. Repeat offenders are subject to extremely harsh penalties.
Our Norfolk Drunk Driving Attorney Has In-Depth Knowledge of all Virginia DUI/DWI Constitutional Issues, Statutory Construction Factors and the Scientific/Factual Elements That May Affect Your Case
In Virginia, the drunk driving laws are strict and somewhat complex; the laws are outlined in more than 40 pages of The Virginia Code. The laws change almost every year, so it is extremely important that your Virginia DUI/DWI lawyer has up-to-date knowledge of the laws that will apply in your case.
While serving as an assistant commonwealth's attorney for Chesapeake, attorney Laine developed insight into the tactics used by prosecutors. This is a significant advantage for our clients, because this experience ensures attorney Laine can create and present a strong DUI defense, as well as provide services to our clients such as:
- Pursue a restricted license to allow travel to work or medical appointments
- Provide referrals to professionals for treatment or evaluation, when appropriate

Laine, so he can evaluate the circumstances of your arrest and explain your legal rights and the options available to you.
