Minnesota DWI Lawyers Win Streak of Cases
Online, May 17, 2010 (Newswire.com) - The Giancola Law Office, a team of lawyers based in Anoka, Minnesota, has won a slew of recent victories in court. The majority of these victories have been related to DWI cases and events.
Over the past two-three weeks the Giancola Law Office has won the following type of cases: Implied Consent Hearing, DWI & Forfeiture of Vehicle and a Contested Omnibus Hearing. The outcomes of the cases were as follows:
DWI & Forfeiture of Vehicle: In this case, the client's vehicle was forfeited and he was charged with second degree DWI. However, a careful investigation revealed that an out of state conviction for a minor misdemeanor was incorrectly coded and then sent to Minnesota as a prior DWI. When all was said and done, the client's driving record was corrected in all relevant states, his vehicle was returned, and the charges were reduced.
Implied Consent Hearing: At this hearing, the officer failed to show. As a result, the revocation was rescinded, and the Petitioner driving privileges were reinstated. This case shows that at the very least, one should always challenge the driver's license revocation in a Minnesota DWI proceeding.
Contested Omnibus Hearing: After reviewing all of the police reports, I really felt that the facts didn't support the charges. So we challenged probable cause, wrote a length brief, and argued orally at the hearing. The judge agreed and dismissed the case.
The Giancola Law Office will strive to keep the quality and success rate of their office up and moving forward in the coming weeks and months.
