Drunk Driving Accident Lawyers in Massachusetts

If a driver is accused of operating under the influence, there is often a measure of subjectivity. A police officer decides that someone is driving erratically and pulls them over for field sobriety testing, chemical tests, and so forth, and even those tests can be called into question. However, in an accident, it's indisputable that a crash has happened. If a driver is tested for a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher, then the criminal penalties can be serious. 

At Miller Law Group, P.C., we have successfully handled hundreds of cases in Massachusetts, and we are ready to take on any challenge. Even if you are facing the heightened stakes of an OUI or DUI charge resulting from a vehicle accident, we are ready with the insight, resources, and decades of experience that can make a difference in your case.

OUI Accidents, Implied Consent & Potential Sentencing

If you are convicted of a drunk driving accident and someone else was injured, you could be looking at a minimum of six months in jail. If somebody was seriously injured in the crash, then the prison sentence could range from 2.5 years to 10. If someone was killed in the accident, then an OUI vehicular homicide conviction could mean up to 15 years in prison.

Because of implied consent law, if you refuse a breath, blood, or urine test as well, then you could automatically lose your license for anywhere from 180 days to 10 years. It is also still possible to get a drunk driving conviction without chemical testing in the first place.

If you've been charged with an OUI after being in an accident, not only is your driver's license at risk, but your freedom is also very much on the line. A felony OUI conviction on your record would also mean difficult in any future hunts for a job or housing. You urgently need a strong defender on the case as soon as possible.
