DUI / OVI Defense
DUI/OVI defense focuses on protecting the rights of individuals charged with operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs. In Ohio, even a first-time offense can lead to serious consequences, including license suspension, fines, increased insurance rates, and possible jail time. A strong defense can challenge the legality of the traffic stop, the accuracy of breath or blood tests, and other key evidence. With the right attorney, it's possible to reduce charges, protect your record, and minimize the long-term impact of a DUI/OVI arrest.
Criminal Defense
Criminal defense involves representing individuals accused of crimes and ensuring their constitutional rights are protected throughout the legal process. Whether you're facing misdemeanor charges or serious felony accusations, a conviction can have lasting consequences—impacting your freedom, employment, and future opportunities. A skilled criminal defense attorney can investigate the facts, challenge the prosecution’s case, and advocate for reduced charges, dismissal, or acquittal. Early legal representation is critical to building a strong defense and achieving the best possible outcome.
While our firm is known for delivering aggressive, strategic defense in DUI and criminal cases, we also provide compassionate and results-oriented representation in estate planning, family law, and personal injury matters. We are committed to guiding clients through difficult times with clarity, care, and a focus on achieving the best possible outcomes.
