We Defend You Against Drunk Driving Charges
Drunk driving is one of the most common criminal charges out there. There are a number of important facts to remember about a drunk driving charge, but the bottom line is simple: if you’ve been arrested for operating a vehicle while impaired (OVI), you need a skilled, experienced attorney.
At , attorney Thomas Kollin has built a career around fighting criminal charges in Beavercreek and the Green County area. A DUI/OVI charge is serious. If convicted, your driver’s license will absolutely be suspended; you will incur substantial fines and mandatory incarceration, and your job may be at stake. Therefore, it is important to hire the services of an experienced DUI/OVI attorney if you have been charged with or arrested for an OVI-related crime.
How A DUI/OVI Attorney Can Help
Having an experienced OVI defense attorney can mean the difference between harsh consequences ( mandatory jail time, large fines, driver’s license suspension) and moving on with your life. The attorneys at The Kollin Firm, LLC, have represented clients throughout Ohio for over 15 years who have been charged with violating Ohio’s DUI/OVI law.
Understanding The Legal Limit
It is not illegal to drink and drive. It is illegal to drive while impaired. There is a big difference. In Ohio, the legal limit for impairment for an adult is a blood alcohol content of .08%. That typically equates to several drinks over a short period of time.
However, the tests available for your level of impairment from alcohol are notoriously subjective or sensitive. Testing equipment can be poorly calibrated or malfunctioning. The officer may have violated your rights in pulling you over. The field sobriety test may have unfair in the way it was conducted.
The legal jeopardy you face in a drunk driving case is significant, but we will stay with you the whole way.
