Being convicted of a DWI or Drunk Driving charge can seriously affect your life and your future. A DWI conviction can result in jail time as well as the loss of driving privileges. Heavy fines and court costs are a direct consequence of a DWI conviction, as well as driver license suspension or revocation. If convicted of a DWI offense, the cost of your automobile insurance premium will be greatly increased or the coverage cancelled altogether. In many cases, a suspended or revoked driver license as a result of a DWI conviction will result in job termination. A DWI conviction can also result in the denial of a government job or obtaining a government security clearance.
