New Hampshire's DWI & Personal Injury Lawyer

In recent weeks, the Russman Law website has added two extremely valuable pages that pertain to unique DWI circumstances.

The first new page explains being charged with DWI negligent homicide, what the laws are and how to find the best defense possible.

The second new page gives information about being charged with DWI with an injury involved. This is considered an aggravated DWI and can heavily impact people that drive for a living, such as CDL drivers.

Remember to visit the Russman Law Office Blog in between newsletter deliveries to keep up-to-date on the latest New Hampshire legal news that may impact you.

As always, if you have any questions, please send me feedback with comments, topics of interest, or general questions for future newsletter issues.
