MELANIE'S LAW imposed harsh new penalties for OUI. Plus, Registry suspensions of 30 days up to life now begin immediately upon arrest.

With only 10-15 days to fight them, you must act now to save your license!

Fighting a Massachusetts DUI involves an extremely complicated system of laws. Besides the loss of your driver's license, if you are convicted of operating under the influence (OUI) in Massachusetts, you may face anything from probation and a fine to 5 years in prison. You need to seek the advice of an experienced and aggressive Massachusetts OUI, DUI, DWI lawyer immediately.

I am a criminal defense lawyer who concentrates in operating under the influence cases (OUI / DUI / DWI), a charge which in Massachusetts can now follow you the rest of your life. I have experience in 60 Massachusetts Courts.

Due to increasingly complex laws, OUI defense has become a specialty. For examples of my success, click on the following cases:
