    Quincy OUI & DUI Attorney

    Defending Against OUI & DUI Charges Throughout Norfolk County

    One night on the town could suddenly change your life. Although no one ever expects to get arrested after a couple of drinks, when the unimaginable occurs, you must be able to rely on your choice of legal representation.

    There are many ways to defend your OUI/DUI charge. There are many ways to challenge evidence in your case. If the arresting officer was inexperienced and did not follow protocol correctly, you could have your case dismissed. If you were not properly observed for 15 minutes, and you had vomited or burped in the 15 minutes prior to your Breathalyzer test, your BAC could have registered as higher than it actually was.

    Though police officers are increasingly using the breathalyzer device to test an individual's blood alcohol content (BAC) level, it can often be an erroneous breath test. In some instances, officers do not use the proper procedure in administering the test because they fail to conduct the required procedures.

    What are the Penalties for First-Time Offenders?

    Massachusetts laws are tough on OUI offenders. The state has implemented laws in recent years that have increased certain OUI-related penalties, such as penalties for those who refuse chemical tests when suspected of the offense. The state does, however, have options for some first-time offenders, which can help them avoid prison time.

    A driver convicted of OUI for the first time in Massachusetts could be sentenced to up to two-and-a-half years in prison, a fine ranging between $500 and $5,000, or both imprisonment and the fine together, according to Massachusetts' General Laws Chapter 90, §24(1)(a)(1) (2012). These penalties are less severe than those inflicted on second-time or subsequent offenders.

    Penalties become more severe with the number of repeat offenses:

    • Second Offense - $600-$6,000 in fines, license suspension for 2 years, and 30 days to 30 months in prison
    • Third Offense - $1,000-$15,000 in fines, license suspension for 8 years, and 150 days to 5 years in prison
    • Fourth Offense - $1,500 to $25,000 in fines, license suspension for years 10, and 2 to 5 years in prison.
    • Fifth Offense - $2,000 to $50,000 in fines, indefinite license suspension, and no less than 2.5 years in prison.

    Possible Alternative Sentencing

    There is a chance a first-time offender could be given the option of serving probation and completing an alcohol treatment program, which can be done in place of a prison sentence. For this to be possible, the defendant must have never previously been convicted of the OUI or assigned to attend a drug or alcohol education, treatment, or rehabilitation program because of two or more similar offenses. The court will need to review the defendant's driving record and criminal record. If it is determined that the individuals would benefit from such a program and that this option would not endanger the public, there is a chance the defendant could take advantage of this alternative sentencing.

    Providing Strong Legal Counsel For OUI & DUI Charges

    A strong attorney might be able to help a defendant reach a "not guilty" verdict. There might be evidence that shows the arresting officer did not follow procedures properly, that the defendant was wrongly accused, or that there is not enough evidence to lead to a conviction. While this is the ultimate goal in OUI cases, there are also times in which a conviction is unavoidable. In these instances, the right attorney might be able to help a defendant receive an outcome that results in the least amount of damage to his or her life. Our experienced Quincy DUI lawyer can provide aggressive defense on your behalf by creating a valuable plan of action and representing you with confidence.
