I was arrested for DUI and, because of a DUI conviction from 34 years ago, was facing the prospects of a second conviction. In my initial consult with Attorney Bowser, he clearly laid out my options – and the penalties associated with them. After discussing all the options, we agreed that the best option for me was to plead guilty and try and minimize the penalties. Although Atty. Bowser felt there was always a chance to win at trial, he understood my reasons for not going to trial – namely that I would have been denied all driving privileges pending the outcome of the trial, which could have taken up to 6 months – Atty. Bowser was not looking to add to his impressive “win” totals, but was working with his client (me) to affect the best possible outcome.
At my court appearance Atty. Bowser successfully argued for a Cahill Disposition, resulting in the conviction being classified a misdemeanor and enabling me to get limited driving privileges much more quickly than I would have otherwise. I was still facing 3 years with a hardship license and 5 years with an ignition interlock device, but Atty. Bowser was not done.
Using his many years of experience and knowledge of the legal system, Atty. Bowser successfully argued to have my 34 year old DUI conviction re-opened, and then dismissed. Atty. Bowser then contacted the RMV to make sure my driving privileges were restored. The end result was 1 DUI conviction on my record, a 6 month hardship license ( I had refused the breathalyzer) and 6 months paying for the Ignition Interlock Device.
Atty. Bowser’s expertise and hard work saved me over $7000 in Ignition Interlock Device payments alone, not to mention allowing me to drive after 7 PM.
I highly recommend Atty. Bowser for anyone facing a DUI conviction, you will not be disappointed.
