How Much Will Attorneys Fees be for Defending a Drunk Driving Charge – DUI?
Our firm charges $1,500.00 for a first offense, and $2,500.00 for second offense. Third Offenses are $3,500.00. If other charges (beyond traffic offenses) accompany the OVI charge, it may be more. We take credit cards. How Long Will They Suspend My Driver’s License for a DUI? It depends upon your situation. On a first OVI, if you took the test and flunked it, the BMV will automatically suspend your license for 90 days. If you are found guilty then most judges will impose a six month driver’s license suspension, but it will be retroactive to the date you were pulled over. Your attorney can apply for Limited Driving Privileges during any suspension except for the first 15 days after you were pulled over and flunked the test. If you refused the test, then your license will be suspended by the Ohio BMV for one year. You will have to wait 30 days for the before you can apply for Limited Driving Privileges.
