A: Forget about the Miranda issue. It's not like television. There's nothing you can do to prevent a conviction for DWLS other than to hire an experienced attorney to see if he or she can negotiate something different than this misdemeanor. You have no defense to the charge. You were suspended, regardless of the fact you did not know.
