Help for First Time DUI Offenders On The South Shore. South Coast, or on the Cape
Are you a First Time Offender?When counting Massachusetts DUI offenses, it usually does not matter how old they are. Massachusetts law allows for a "lifetime look-back" which means that the court may consider prior DUI/OUI offenses regardless of whether the convictions were in Massachusetts or in another state when assessing a penalty at sentencing. This means that any conviction on a drunk driving charge from years ago may cause you to be considered a repeat offender, instead of the first time offender status you were expecting. This can lead to serious fines and penalties, in addition to suspension in your driving privileges. It is important to obtain the services of a qualified Southeastern Massachusetts DUI Defense Attorney such as Irwin Pollack, Attorney at Law.
South Coast DUI Defense Lawyer
Our DUI Defense Attorneys perform an independent investigation of your case, examining all aspects of the events leading up to the arrest and the arrest itself. That involves our seeking answers to various questions, including:
- Was the initial police stop justified?
- Were you stopped by the police because the officer saw you swerve? If so, did you swerve to miss an object on the road? Was your swerving within the painted lines of your own lane?
- Did the police notice bloodshot eyes? Were you tired or were your contact lenses bothering you?
- Were the field sobriety tests properly administered?
- If you did take a field sobriety test and failed, was it because of other medical reasons?
