About Kettering DUI Attorney Charles M. Rowland II
The good news is that a good Kettering DUI attorney can significantly curb the financial detriments incurred in an OVI case. While predicting what an attorney can save you is just as wildly speculative as predicting costs, it is common for many of the costs to be subject to negotiation and/or reduction. A reduction of the charge will not only lower the possible maximum fines, but gets rid of ugly mandatory punishments required by Ohio’s OVI statute, R.C. 4511.19.
