My law firm is committed to providing the highest level of client service. From its inception, I have placed an emphasis on providing legal services that make sense from the client's perspective. That is why I continue to offer a FREE INITIAL DUI CONSULTATION. Typically, these consultations last between 30 minutes and one hour depending on the complexity of the case. At the consultation, we will review the law, potential penalties, facts of your case, and begin to explore possible defenses. We will put together a plan to obtain driving privileges as quickly as possible. You should bring your ticket, the ALS form (it is a yellow 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper the officer should have given you), proof of insurance and any questions you would like answered. Call 513-333-0014 to schedule an appointment today!

| Types of Devices: Intoxilyzer
This device uses infrared (IR) spectroscopy, which identifies molecules based on the way they absorb IR light. Molecules are constantly vibrating, and these vibrations change when the molecules absorb IR light. The changes in vibration include the bending and stretching of various bonds. Each type of bond within a molecule absorbs IR at different wavelengths. So, to identify ethanol in a sample, you have to look at the wavelengths of the bonds in ethanol (C-O, O-H, C-H, C-C) and measure the absorption of IR light. The absorbed wavelengths help to identify the substance as ethanol, and the amount of IR absorption tells you how much ethanol is there. In the Intoxilyzer: 1. A lamp generates a broadband (multiple-wavelength) IR beam. 2. The broadband IR beam passes through the sample chamber and is focused by a lens onto a spinning filter wheel. 3. The filter wheel contains narrow band filters specific for the wavelengths of the bonds in ethanol. The light passing through each filter is detected by the photocell, where it is converted to an electrical pulse. 4. The electrical pulse is relayed to the microprocessor, which interprets the pulses and calculates the BAC based on the absorption of infrared light. Craig C. Freudenrich, Ph.D..

Did you know that under current Ohio law a DUI conviction is NEVER able to be expunged? It also makes a person ineligible for an expungement of any other offense on their record for the rest of their life. Even a single DUI conviction can interfere with your ability to travel internationally. In Canada, members of Inadmissible Classes include those who have been convicted DRIVING WHILE INTOXICATED. Driving while under the influence of alcohol is regarded as an extremely serious offense in Canada. To learn more about travel to Canada after a DUI conviction, see their consulate's website. |

Deadlines are very important in Ohio DUI case. You only have 30 days from the arraignment to file an appeal of the ALS. You only have 35 days from arraignment to file a motion to suppress evidence.
