Let’s look at the basics of Lebanon DUI defense by first answering the question “what is a DUI?” Any Lebanon DUI attorney can tell you that DWI (driving while impaired), OVI (operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs) and DUI (driving under the influence) are common phrases people use when discussing the law that prohibits drinking and driving in Lebanon and other cities across the state of Ohio.
If you’ve been charged with drinking and driving in the Lebanon Ohio area and you’re searching for a Lebanon DUI Attorney, ask yourself the following five questions:
Do you like the idea of being represented by an experienced Lebanon DUI attorney instead of an attorney who handles just a few DUI cases every year?
Do you like the idea of being represented by a Lebanon DUI attorney who has been recognized by groups like the National Advocacy for DUI Defense, Super Lawyers, the National Trial Lawyers, and DUI Attorneys.net?
Would you prefer a Lebanon DUI attorney who concentrates his practice on DUI defense instead of a DUI lawyer who also handles cases in domestic relations, personal injury, estate planning, and child custody?
Would you want your Lebanon DUI attorney to set a limit on the number of cases he accepts so that he can give each case the necessary time and attention that it demands?
Do you like the idea of being represented by a Lebanon DUI attorney who has a history of getting the majority of charges against his clients reduced or dismissed?
If you answered yes to each of those questions, you’re in the right place. Jeremiah Denslow is one of the top Lebanon DUI attorney who handles DUI cases in Warren County and other courts across Ohio. His Lebanon DUI defense practice gets successful results by relying on a very simple formula: (a) a concentrated focus and dedication to DUI defense; (b) a concentrated focus and dedication to Ohio courts; and (c) a concentrated focus and dedication to limiting the number of clients he accepts.If you think about it, it’s no wonder he gets results. His DUI practice is extremely focused on drinking and driving and he accepts fewer clients than most other Lebanon DUI attorneys. That means each client gets more time and attention, their cases get analyzed more thoroughly and clients are generally happy with the results of their case.

Lebanon DUI Laws and DUI Penalties
The law makes it illegal to drive or otherwise operate a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs. The law also prohibits people from drinking and driving, even when not impaired, when their BAC (blood alcohol content) is 0.08% or higher, also called a per se Lebanon DUI violation. For heavy drinkers, Ohio law has a more serious DUI charge often referred to as a super DUI, where a Lebanon DUI driver has a blood alcohol content of 0.17% or higher.
A Lebanon DUI is considered a fairly serious charge that carries fairly serious penalties if the driver is convicted. For example, a Lebanon DUI carries mandatory jail time ranging from 3 days up to a maximum of 180 days, even for a first-time DUI offender. A Lebanon DUI also carries a mandatory driver license suspension up to a maximum of three years and a monetary fine that can top $1000. In addition, Lebanon DUI courts can require a defendant to complete a drug/alcohol assessment and enter into an in-patient treatment program depending on the results of the assessment. A Lebanon DUI court can also require a defendant to attend AA classes and other twelve-step programs.
These are but some of the potential penalties for first-time Lebanon DUI defendants. For DUI defendants who are on a second or third DUI in a six-year period, the penalties are much more severe—jail sentences up to one year, fines up to $2750, and a DUI license suspension that can last up to ten years. For a felony DUI in Lebanon Ohio, defendants can be sentenced to years in prison, fined over $10,000 and have their driver license revoked for life. Fortunately, the penalties discussed above only apply to drivers who are convicted of a Lebanon DUI. A good Lebanon DUI attorney may be able to prevent a conviction from happening, depending on the facts and circumstances of the case. That being said, it’s important to recognize that even the best Lebanon DUI attorneys can’t beat every case. If you are facing DUI charges in Lebanon or the surrounding areas, contact a top Lebanon DUI attorney to see what he thinks about the case. Maybe you have a case that should be reduced to a minor traffic violation, or better yet, dismissed entirely.
