Frequently Asked Questions

What are the penalties for a first DWI offense in Louisiana?

A first-offense DWI in Louisiana is a misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail, a fine between $300 and $1,000, and a 90-day driver’s license suspension. Mandatory participation in a substance abuse program and installation of an ignition interlock device may also be required. Louisiana’s DWI laws have become increasingly strict, and an attorney can often negotiate reduced charges or diversion programs for first-time offenders without prior criminal history.

How does criminal history affect immigration status in Louisiana?

Certain criminal convictions — including crimes of moral turpitude, aggravated felonies, and drug offenses — can make a non-citizen deportable or inadmissible under federal immigration law. Even a misdemeanor guilty plea can trigger serious immigration consequences. Louisiana residents who are not U.S. citizens should consult both a criminal defense attorney and an immigration attorney before accepting any plea deal, as the immigration impact can be permanent and more severe than the criminal sentence itself.
