How Much Will It Cost Me to Be Represented by an Attorney in a Drunk Driving Case

By | February 10, 2013

I normally charge $1500.00 to represent a defendant in a drunk driving case if it is for a first offense.  If we are talking about a second offense, or if the person tested over .180 then I normally charge $2,500.00 since there are other more complex issues that come into play involving sentencing and proof.  If we are looking at a third OVI, then I am going to charge $3,500.oo.

Anything more than a third OVI is likely going to put you over in federal court on an indictment, and that is going to be minimum of $5,ooo.00.

If you wish to contact me about hiring me to help you contest a drunk driving case, you can reach me at 614.580.4316.  I don’t charge anything for an initial consultation to see if I can help you.  If you want to hire me after that, we can go from there.
