Driving while intoxicated is a serious charge, especially in Massachusetts where each offense stays on your driving record permanently. Each consecutive DWI / OUI offense carries increasingly substantial fines and more potential jail time than the last. If you have failed a field sobriety test or your blood alcohol level has been recorded by a police breathalyzer as above .08, minimally you will have to deal with a suspended license and attendance of alcohol education classes.

Massachusetts authorities frequently offer first-time offenders the opportunity to obtain a work license in exchange for a guilty plea. The opportunity of being allowed to drive to work often sounds tempting to clients but do not be fooled. This guilty plea will stay on your record forever, increasing your fines and potential jail time if you are to re-offend. Contact a Massachusetts DUI attorney before you enter a guilty plea. You may have more options than the authorities have led you to believe.
