OWI Victory

Nov 30, 2016

OUTCOME: Dismissal

Our client was charged with an OWI first offense and from the beginning she was very concerned about her case and felt she had not been treated fairly by law enforcement. She came to Severson & Smead l ... ooking for help. After evaluating the case, Attorney Preston Smead was convinced that the prosecution was in trouble. Law enforcement had no apparent justification for stopping our client’s vehicle and the evidence did not appear to support a conviction for drunk driving. Attorney Smead litigated the matter aggressively and was prepared to fight the case at jury trial. Trial didn’t turn out to be necessary because the day before the trial the prosecutor called and conceded to drop the OWI for an inattentive driving ticket. Our client was very pleased!
