Have You Been Convicted of Drunk Driving Before?
Your second DWI/DUI charge could be a felony.
What is the difference between a misdemeanor and a felony DWI/DUI? For one thing, the penalties are much more severe. Losing your driver's license is the least of your concerns. You could go to state prison for up to four years if you are convicted.
Of course, there are other consequences as well. If you go to prison, you will likely lose your job. You'll be labeled a convicted felon and you'll have to carry that with you for the rest of your life. Your right to vote or carry a firearm may even be taken away.
The Experience to Fight and Win in Felony DWI/DUI Cases
My name is Michael Spano. I'm a lawyer with more than 17 years of criminal law experience. In addition to my defense experience, I have served as a criminal prosecutor in the district attorneys office. I held the position of chief assistant district attorney.
This background is important, because it means I have stood in the shoes of the opposition. I know what works against them. I know what they are afraid of. I use my experience to fight and win the most serious felony DWI/DUI cases.
An Aggressive Approach
These cases must be handled aggressively. The unfortunate fact of the matter is that your previous drunk driving conviction is a strike against you. It is an obstacle that is difficult to overcome.
I believe in being aggressive to overcome this obstacle and any other obstacle that stands in my path in drunk driving defense. This is the approach that I use to prevent people in Syracuse and Central New York from becoming convicted felons.
