Being pulled over by the police can be a harrowing experience for anyone, but when you add the suspicion that you were driving under the influence, a typical traffic stop quickly turns into something very grim. With that in mind, a lot was on the line recently for a 23-year-old man from Columbus, Ohio, who wound up being charged with an OVI after being pulled over for speeding and crossing marked lanes. The man was put through a field sobriety evaluation, but when he refused the breath test, he made a rude comment to the officer, which exacerbated the situation and led to his arrest. Faced with the possibility of a haunting OVI conviction on his criminal record and the loss of his license, he contacted the Columbus OVI attorneys with Luftman, Heck & Associates for legal representation.
Despite the video evidence and his disparaging remark to the arresting officer, the attorneys with LHA were unwavering in their pursuit to reduce the penalty for this client. We effectively negotiated with the prosecutors and successfully arranged to have the Columbus OVI charge amended to a reckless operation, which would not result in a license suspension, or any period of probation. This result greatly relieved the young man, who after paying a small fine for the reckless operation charge, was spared the consequences of a Columbus OVI conviction and could move on with his life.
