OWI & TRAFFIC TICKETS

Operating While Intoxicated (OWI), Driving Under the Influence (DUI), Driving While Suspended, Habitual Traffic Violator (HTV), Tickets, Infractions, License Suspension

If you have been charged with OWI (Operating While Intoxicated), commonly referred to as DUI (Driving Under the Influence), in Northwest Indiana, you not only need to take these charges seriously, you need attorneys that have handled hundreds of similar cases over the years.

An OWI arrest is one of the most common crimes charged nationwide, BUT the consequences of an OWI conviction can have a serious, long-term effect on not only on the individual, but also the family. It is important to know your rights and to have a team of qualified attorneys dedicated to serving the unique needs of your particular case. Where a dismissal of your case is not an option, a conviction for OWI carries a license suspension. Where a license suspension is imposed by either the court or the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (“BMV”), we work tirelessly to obtain Specialized Driving Permits (SDP) for our clients, to allow them to drive for a variety of reasons, including travel to and from work, family responsibilities, religious services, medical care, and completion of court ordered obligations.

PERSONAL INJURY & CIVIL LITIGATION

Auto Accident, Slip and Fall, Sexual Harrassment, EEOC Claim, Excessive Force By Police

The civil justice system makes it possible for people to raise private grievances and resolve fundamental disputes. Whether you are involved in a direct lawsuit, a complicated suit involving numerous parties, or anything in between, civil litigation requires special skills and experience to properly protect your interests.

Each year thousands of people across Indiana are injured or killed as a result of accidents such as automobile collisions, defective products, a slip-and-fall or a work-related accident. Each situation involves different legal issues, and each situation requires the aggressive, client-centered representation our firm provides.

 

In addition to accidents, hundreds of Hoosiers suffer physical, emotional, and economic harm as a result of a violation of their Civil Rights. Whether a person’s rights are violated by law enforcement through the use of excessive force, a correctional facility through the failure to reasonably protect a detainee, or an employer or educational provider through either retaliation or the failure to protect against sexual harassment and other forms of discrimination, the person is legally entitled to compensation for his or her injuries. Our firm approaches Civil Rights litigation with the knowledge, confidence, and aggression needed to help you effectively assert and protect your rights.
