OUI FAQ's

SHOULD I FIGHT IT OR PLEAD?

Fight! While everyone's situation is different, in most cases you will receive the same penalty after trial as you would if you plead guilty or admitted to sufficient facts. People who fight their cases have a better than 50% chance of winning. Hiring a lawyer who concentrates in these cases your chances increase significantly.

WILL THE JUDGE OR JURY KNOW IT'S MY 2nd OR SUBSEQUENT OFFENSE?

NO. In over 15 years I have never had a case where the jury (or judge) was allowed to consider that information.

CAN I GET A WORK LICENSE?

NO. Unless your license loss is 1 year or longer no hardship licenses are permitted by the Registry of Motor Vehicles.

WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF A NOT GUILTY/DISMISSAL/NOLLE PROS IN OUI CASES ON CHEMICAL TEST REFUSALS AND FAILURES?

When the operator is under a 90 suspension for failing a breath test:

The Not Guilty or Dismissal (incl. Nolle Pros) will terminate the 90 day suspension as soon as the RMV has notice of the court finding.

When the operator is under a 120 day (or more) suspension for refusing the test:

The finding does not automatically terminate the suspension, but in the great majority of cases the license is returned upon motion.

Most lawyers will tell you trying to get your license back is a waste of time. This is because their specialty is not Massachusetts OUI or DUI Law. For a Massachusetts OUI lawyer with the experience to get your license back, contact Jay Milligan.
