5yr loss of license, breath test refusal

Refusing to take a breath test was one of the biggest parts of winning my court case. Due to the dedication and support of Joseph Higgins, 9 months after being found NOT GUILTY of my charged 3rd OUI, my drivers license was reinstated. We had to go before the judge in order to have my full license ret...urned. I can say that Joe played a huge role in getting the judge to agree to returning my license. I would not have been able to stand before her myself. Thank you Joe for everything.

Excellent Lawyer

Joe was on top of everything. He caught every mistake the ADA made, by not providing documentation, not providing it in a timely manner or in the proper format. He advocated my case proficiently even though the ADA wanted nothing but the harshest sentence. They were unreasonable and wouldn't nego...tiate. They went for the home run and struck out because Joe made sure the judge knew that they were not playing by the rules and even the times the judge gave the ADA additional time to clean up their case file, Joe fought them at every turn. My case was dismissed finally because of Joe's perseverance. He and his firm are the right one for the job if you are ever jammed up..... Don't hesitate to call Milligan & Higgins. They were make it happen for you. You can trust they will do everything to solve your issue.

Joseph Higgins Defeated my DUI

Joseph Higgins came to my aid when I was arrested for a DUI. He came to my place of business to meet with me and walked me step by step through this scary process. He was available by phone and/or by cell, whenever I had questions. But, most of all. When we took my case to trial. He was there PREP...ARED! He studied the police report and defended me against every detail! We defeated this and thanks to Joe, I will not have a DUI on my record. I couldn't be anymore thankful. I will recommend him to anyone that needs help against a DUI.

Great RMV Lawyer

Joe did a great job at reinstating my license with the RMV. A very nice gentleman and very respectful. What more can you ask for? I highly recommend him!

Great DUI Lawyer!

Attorney Joe Higgins did an excellent job with my case. Joe carefully explained all the options I had, to ensure we were moving forward in the best possible fashion. I work a 9 to 5 job, which often made it difficult to meet with him during the week. Joe made himself available around my schedule, ...to reduce the impact of this unfortunate incident on the rest of my life. Also, Joe attacked my case from many different angles, which I felt gave me multiple ways which the case could be dismissed or won. In the end, Joe worked to ensure my OUI was dismissed, bringing an end to the case in the best possible fashion. Joe, and his team, will work tirelessly to get the best possible outcome for their clients, and I highly recommend him.
