Defense of OUI, DUI or DWI Charges in Massachusetts
For dependable advice and representation on a wide range of Massachusetts drunk driving charges, contact Boston criminal trial lawyer Thomas McKean for a free consultation about the best way to protect yourself from the increasingly harsh consequences of an OUI conviction.
Since the enactment of Melanie's Law several years ago, drivers with old OUI or DUI convictions find themselves facing heavy fines, extended license suspensions and jail time if convicted of new charges. A drunk driving conviction today will be punished as a repeat offense even if your prior case occurred 20 or 30 years ago. The advice of an experienced defense lawyer can help you find the most effective defense to your current charge.
Boston defense attorney Thomas McKean has more than 30 years of experience with criminal law. He handles OUI defense in such situations as the following:
- First offense drunk driving charges
- Repeat offense or felony OUI charges based on multiple prior convictions
- Applications to the Registry of Motor Vehicles for a restricted driver's license after a drunk driving arrest, breath test refusal, or OUI conviction
- Suppression of drunk driving evidence in cases where the initial traffic stop was not based on a reasonable suspicion of the offense
- Trial of OUI cases when the evidence indicates irregularities with the evidence of blood alcohol concentration or the integrity of the blood or breath test procedures
- Felony drunk driving cases involving fatal accidents or serious injuries
- Driver's license renewal problems for Massachusetts drivers, as well as drivers from other states with old Massachusetts OUI, DWI or DUI convictions
