It is a given that being charged with a crime is stressful and high stakes but for any criminal case involving a motor vehicle there is almost always the added threat of a simultaneous BMV license suspension process.  The BMV process is all about whether or not you lose your license and living in a State lacking transportation options other than a private vehicle means that losing your license here in Maine usually has very harsh impacts.   

Given this, it can be especially rewarding to win contested BMV hearings on issues such as:

1. Police Officer not properly observing prior to the breath test;
2. Police Officer refusing to utilize an interpreter to help a person understand their instructions and the penalties for not taking a breath test;
3. Police Officer failing to conduct a mouth inspection prior to a test.

In each of these cases, over just the past couple of months, HWW Lawyers WON BMV hearings which meant that HWW clients KEPT THEIR DRIVER'S LICENSE and drove away from the BMV hearings!   

In several other cases we have been able to negotiate in order to avoid the BMV process altogether meaning that HWW clients KEPT THEIR DRIVER'S LICENSES!

If you are facing an OUI charge here in Maine.  Give HWW a call at (207) 775-4255 and ask to speak to one of the members of our OUI defense team.   Facing OUI - think three letters - HWW.
