When someone walks into court alone, charged with an OVI or a DUI, they are in trouble. The prosecutor is not likely to give them any consideration. They're going to end up with a much higher fine, a much higher days in jail, a more severe penalty and probably on probation for a much longer period of time.
The important factors for a first-time DUI offender, first and foremost, is mandatory jail time. Because if you walk into court alone at that first court date and plead guilty to the offense, you're going to go to jail.
It's extremely dangerous for someone charged with a DUI or OVI in Ohio not to have good legal representation.
It is important to aggressively defend any OVI charge, because from the very beginning, you are presumed guilty. This is a system of law, an area of law where your license is taken from you immediately on the mere suspicion that you may have been driving while impaired.
An OVI or DUI conviction has a big impact on your driving privileges in Ohio. We work hard with our clients to keep their options open, their driving privileges as broad as possible, so that they can continue on with their day-to-day activities, continue their normal daily living.
