Manassas DUI Lawyer Helps Retired Marine Defeat DUI w .15 BAC

After being arrested for a DUI with a .15 breath test result, a retired Marine with a security clearance to protect contacted The Wilson Law Firm seeking assistance.  Due to the breath test result, if convicted, in addition to the fine, license suspension and permanent criminal record for DUI, he would have to serve at least 5 days in jail and install an Ignition Interlock Device (IID) in every vehicle he owns or operates.  After giving the matter some thought he chose to hire Manassas, Virginia DUI Lawyer T. Kevin Wilson to handle his case. 

Attorney Wilson was able to persuade the prosecuting attorney that the breath test result should be suppressed, which was a huge victory because it both amounted to an acquittal on the per se (.08 or more) DUI charge, and meant that even if convicted of the under the influence DUI charge, the jail sentence and IID requirement triggered by the .15 breath test result would not be required.  

Without the assistance of a breath test, in order to prove the under the influence DUI charge the prosecution would have to rely largely upon the field sobriety tests.  As an experienced DUI Defense Lawyer trained on the proper administration of NHTSA Standardized Field Sobriety Tests, T. Kevin Wilson was able to use that specialized knowledge and experience to persuade the prosecuting attorney to reduce the charge from DUI to Reckless Driving.  

Permanent Record for DUI:  NO     Time in Jail:  NO     Iginition Interlock Device:  NO

Happy He Hired T. Kevin Wilson and The Wilson Law Firm:  YES
