Drunk Driving Charges - Helping You Bounce Back
Each year it seems the legislature increases the severity of drunk driving penalties. With the attention the media directs to repeat drunk driving offenders, plea-bargaining has become more difficult. Geoffrey R. Smith, Attorney at Law, understands that people make mistakes. Despite this, you still deserve an aggressive defense to your OVI/DUI charge and Geoffrey R. Smith, Attorney at Law, will ensure that your rights are protected. He will challenge the validity of the traffic stop, the field sobriety test and the breathalyzer test.
Defending you against a charge of OVI or DUI involves two separate processes.
Civilly, he will do all we can to protect your driving privileges. He will contest the revocation of your license and petition that you be granted Occupational and/or Limited driving privileges allowing you to drive to work and to take care of your family. During a hearing, he will also have the chance to hear the state's case against you and have the possibility to question the arresting officer.
Criminally, Geoffrey R. Smith, Attorney at Law, will defend you vigorously, including negotiating for a fair plea bargain with the state to obtain a reduced sentence, a dismissed charge, or an alternative sentence. We will advocate to get you the best resolution of your case given the circumstances. An OVI/DUI is an enhanceable offense, meaning the more convictions you receive, the more likely you will receive a more severe sentence.​
