How Does a Drunk Driving Conviction Affect Your Insurance? »
Your automobile insurance rates are likely going to go up for at least three years, in most states, if you are convicted of drunk driving. Most probably, you will also be learning a lot about something called SR-22.
Your state may call it differently, but no matter whether it is called driving under the influence, driving while intoxicated or operating a vehicle while intoxicated, if you are convicted of any of those offenses, there are great chances that your insurance rates will increase before you are allowed to drive again.
Laws Vary by State
Different states may have various penalties regarding drunk driving, but it is for sure that in every state, impaired driving conviction may result in the suspension of your driving privileges, for at least 30 days to one year, even on the first offense.

A New Legal Blog Is Born »
According to the new year resolutions I have made for myself, I will start blogging to dish out my opinion on laws and cases related to my legal practice. I am a criminal defense attorney by profession and I think it is important for me to increase my exposure and take my practice to a new level in year 2009.
My Brother is helping me out with the technical aspects of this blog. I intend to help other and possibly provide legal aid and advice as an extension to my legal practice. I can spare a few hours a week to keep this blog up to date.
So, If anyone is reading this, be witness to the fact that I have put my first step into blogging and i pledge to make this blog, my little contribution, a place of honest and just opinion on laws and ways of different states and courts.
Do come back here, whenever you have time. I will try to keep you well informed and amused with this blog.
Have a nice day & don’t forget to wish me luck…
