OWI Reduced to Reckless Driving

Few criminal defense lawyers ever achieve a reduction of OWI to reckless driving. Our lawyers have obtained this result multiple times.

How to Get an OWI Reduced to Reckless Driving

LEWIS & DICKSTEIN, P.L.L.C. was able to get an OWI reduced to reckless driving. The allegation was that the client was operating while intoxicated by the consumption of alcohol. This charge was in Wayne County, Michigan. When Loren Dickstein was retained, he went promptly to work diligently and thoroughly reviewing the police reports, records, and recordings relative to the case. When it was time for Court, Mr. Dickstein was prepared to show the prosecuting attorney why they would not be able to convict our client of this offense. He convinced the prosecutor that the field sobriety tests were not performed correctly and why the client was likely not under the influence. The prosecutor agreed to dismiss the OWI charge, and the client pled guilty to reckless driving.

People faced with criminal charges must make sure that their rights are protected. It happens too often that people plead guilty to just “get it over with.” If Mr. Dickstein were not prepared and did not have the expertise to convince the prosecutor to dismiss the original charge, our client would likely have had an alcohol conviction on his criminal record now. Alcohol convictions can have far-reaching adverse effects on someone’s personal life, employment, etc.
