Driver Avoids OVI / DUI Conviction

Our client, a young driver was charged with an OVI / DUI after being pulled over for a registration violation. Columbus DUI attorney Ben Luftman represented him and upon review of the police reports it appeared that he was made to do the roadside field sobriety tests and did relatively well. Attorney Luftman discussed the weaknesses in the state’s case, including the lack of a moving violation and his client’s performance on the field sobriety tests with the prosecutor. The prosecutor ultimately agreed to amend the OVI / DUI charge to a lesser offense of physical control. This was extremely important to our client because he avoided an OVI / DUI conviction which is considered a serious traffic offense, as well as any points on his license.
