Fight Back Against DUI/OVI Charges in Ohio
If you've been charged with drunk driving (DUI/OVI/DWI/OMVI) in Trumbull, Warren, or Mahoning County, Ohio, you are faced with some frightening prospects. In the past 30 years, Ohio's DUI/OVI laws have changed more than any other criminal statute and our state's drunk driving laws are quite complicated.
The actions which constitute a drunk driving crime have been expanded with the lowering of the legal blood alcohol concentration, and the potential penalties for a DUI/OVI conviction have greatly increased. If convicted of DUI/OVI in Ohio, you face jail time, fines, and suspension of your driver's license. Habitual offenders (drivers facing their second, third, or subsequent DUI) face stiffer fines, longer jail sentences and license suspensions, and additional punishment including license plate impoundment and forfeiture of your motor vehicle.
Generally, there are two crimes which can be charged in Ohio in connection with a drunk driving offense:
- Driving under the influence of alcohol or a drug of abuse (often call OVI or DUI referring to operating a vehicle or driving while under the influence); and
- Driving over the legal limit (often called a BAC referring to blood alcohol concentration of more than .08%).
