A Fast Moving Process

It cannot be stressed enough that the process for OVI cases moves quickly and involves many steps. In order to have a chance at winning your case, you must be present at each and every administrative hearing.

Your trial will likely take place within 45 to 60 days from the day of your arrest. Even if you are able to win your appeal on the administrative license suspension, you still face a mandatory one year suspension if you are convicted in criminal court. If you qualify, you may be able to secure a permit for driving to work.

Our attorneys will investigate every aspect of your case including the legality of the traffic stop and the reliability of the testing equipment. This takes time, so it is extremely important to contact us as soon as possible to discuss your situation.
