The lawyer for your case

Joe handle my OUI case last year and I was down on my luck but decided to take a chance. I was charged with OUI after I totaled my love car Acura by rear ending another driver. Even my own family thought it was over. Eagerly trying to prove my case I looked up and did research and finally found my gu...y. Joe was very aggressive at the same time calm and intelligent, he impressed everyone in the courtroom. Joseph Higgins is an outstanding lawyer and an awesome choice.

OUI Defense

Attorney Higgins is a true professional when it comes to representing someone in need of a OUI/Defense lawyer. It took almost two years and numerous court appearances before I was found not guilty. Attorney Higgins’s experience and knowledge helped me win my case. I can say from a past OUI experience... it is not pleasant. Attorney Joseph Higgins would be the person I would hire if I was looking for a OUI/defenses lawyer for the first time offense or repeat offense.

Joe did a Great job in my defense.

Joe did a great job representing me with my second dui charge and was found not guilty. Was reduced to a reckless driving charge. I would recommend Joe Higgins to anyone.

Knowledgeable and skilled OUI lawyer

About a year and a half ago I was arrested for a suspicioun of an OUI and leaving the scene of an accident. Not knowing much about these circumstances I reached out to a couple different lawyers. I came across Joe Higgins and he was the only lawyer who was able to make me feel at ease when speaking t...o him about my case. All the other lawyers essentially made me feel like there was no point in fighting this. However, Joe immediately offered to take on my case. He was profesional but easy to talk to. He thoroughly went over my case and was able to find many gaps in the investigation conducted by the police. He made several court appearances with me and always had my best interest. It is extremely overwhelming and intimidating dealing with court related things but he helped me through it all. He is extremely skilled in what he does and is very knowledgeable about the law. He was really good with his questioning and arguments at all court appearances. It was because of this he was able to win my case resulting in four “not guilty” verdicts. For a case that seemed impossible to beat, Joe was able to do it. I recommend Joe for anyone who feels like there is no hope. He will work endlessly and fight for your case.

OUI Drug Charge With Minor Present

I found Joe after a thorough research for an attorney. I was charged with multiple charges, the most significant being child endangerment. I’m a licensed teacher and this was my first offense, so it was imperative that my lawyer be competent with my case. Attorney Higgins demonstrated an extensive kn...owledge of the law and was very clear from the beginning about what he expected both worst case and best case scenario. He provided guidance throughout the process and was always available when I reached out. Ultimately Attorney Higgins was able to get all EIGHT charges dismissed (some with probation) and at an affordable price considering my financial future was at stake. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney.
