Attleboro Drunk Driving Lawyers

1. Maloney, Michael: Drunk driving, also called DUI, DWI, or OUI refers to an individual’s inability to satisfactorily operate a vehicle as a result of substance abuse. Drunk driving laws vary according to state and the consequences typically depend on a number of factors surrounding the case including prior convictions and parole status. Punishments and penalties of drunk driving convictions can include, but are not limited to jail time, loss of drivers license and insurance, impounding of vehicle, parole/probation, court ordered rehab or driving school, and hefty fines. Insufficient evidence, improper testing, and illegal traffic stops, however, are all arguments that may strengthen your defense, thereby leveraging your ability to have the charges lowered/dropped.
2. Dupont, Gerard: Are you being charged with a misdemeanor or felony criminal offense? DUI? Speeding? Drugs? Assault? Domestic Violence? Theft? If so, you need the representation of an experienced criminal lawyer.
3. VGA: DUI cases are hard to fight in Massachusetts, but your chances of success go up when you retain an experienced criminal defense attorney to help you.
4. Theodore Koban: Contrary to what some believe, Massachusetts has not yet outlawed drinking and driving. It is illegal, and irresponsible, to operate a motor vehicle on a public road when your ability to drive safely has been impaired by too much alcohol. Often the real question regarding someone who has been arrested for "operating under" is whether they were actually impaired at the time they were operating their vehicle. Police officers have an obligation to arrest anyone they think may, even remotely, be driving their car while impaired. It is up to a jury to make a final decision based upon evidence adduced in court to determine whether an offense has occurred.
