Experienced OVI Attorney Serving Cleveland & Northeast Ohio

—

An OVI arrest doesn’t mean you’re guilty. With the right defense, many cases can be reduced, challenged, or dismissed. Attorney Carlos Johnson guides you through every step and works to protect your future.
 

 

Penalties for an OVI in Ohio depend on whether it is a first, second, or third offense. Consequences may include:
License suspension
Fines and court costs
Possible jail time
Ignition interlock device
Increased insurance rates
Criminal record

Even first-time offenders can face serious penalties, but many cases can be reduced or dismissed with the right defense.

An OVI charge does not automatically mean conviction.

Police reports, sobriety tests, and breathalyzer results are often incorrect, incomplete, or taken improperly. Attorney Johnson examines every detail to identify mistakes, violations of your rights, and opportunities to challenge the evidence.


Defenses Attorney Johnson May Use:
✔ Challenging the legality of the traffic stop
✔ Questioning the officer’s observations or procedures
✔ Attacking the accuracy of breath or blood test machines
✔ Challenging improperly administered field sobriety tests
✔ Reviewing dashcam or bodycam footage
✔ Identifying problems in how the sample was stored or analyzed
✔ Arguing constitutional violations (Miranda, search & seizure, etc.)

Protect Your License, Your Record, and Your Future.
