DUI, OVI, Drunk Driving, Driving Under the Influence, Driving while Stupid. Buzzed. Call it what you will, the state of Ohio takes impaired operation of a motor vehicle VERY seriously. As it should. I was on a road trip. Just passing through. Innocent, indignant, and incredulous. Though "contempt ...of cop" is not a crime, under pressure we do unusual, often unfortunate, things. I'm happy to report that Joe Suhre's knowledge of the law, his courtroom experience, and his keen sense of human nature turned an expensive and embarrassing episode into a valuable lesson, and food for many a cautionary tale for People Who Have No Idea. As an out-of-state malefactor, I was clueless at three o'clock in the morning. A very experienced District Attorney friend made numerous calls. Maybe you've seen the Cincinnati Yellow Pages. We stopped at Joseph Bernard Suhre IV. He's the best.

From day one Joe was very knowledgeable, professional, and respectful. I hired Joe after receiving my 3rd OVI in 6 years. His knowledge of the laws, his relationship and repetition with the court staff was very impressive. He was able to get my 3 OVI refusal amended to a 1st OVI refusal. With the... 3rd I was looking at 60 days to 1 yr. in jail, 1 to 5 yr. license suspension, ignition interlock, yellow plates, driving privileges after 1 yr. just for work. After Joe worked his magic I have 5 days in jail with 18 house arrest with work privileges. 24/7 driving privileges immediately with ignition interlock with NO yellow plates. Joe has saved my life. I would have lost my jobs if I had received the plates. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone. He is the best there is!

Joe handled my case as good as any attorney could. When I hired Joe as my attorney and he reviewed my case he was as detail orientated and responsive as I could ask for. He had a detailed plan on how he would approach my case and informed of what was going on along the way. I was very satisfied with ...the result of my case as well and would recommend Joe to anyone.

Over the summer I was arrested for OVI. I have NEVER been in trouble before and this incident was a terrible lapse in judgement on my part and completely out of character for me. From the very beginning Joe treated me with respect and NEVER treated me like a criminal. He was able to set my mind at ea...se each time I frantically called or emailed him (both of which he provides to you for 24/7 access). Unfortunately I wasn't able to get my OVI overturned but that was through no fault of Joe's as we explored every avenue thoroughly. I was, however, able to get the absolute minimum sentence and fees thanks to him. He is definitely willing to go the distance for his clients. Throughout this whole horrible experience, having Joe by my side was able to give me peace of mind that everything possible would be done and that I was in incredibly knowledgeable hands. Thanks Joe!

Mr. Suhre was extremely understanding and knowledgeable about my situation. He was extremely nice and helped me along every step. He told me about every option I had in detail and was able to make the process go along as smoothly as possibly, even with me being an out of state resident. He gathered e...very piece of evidence possible, and knew the benefit I could get from each. I felt very comfortable with him representing me. I could not think of one thing that could have been done better. I was able to get the minimum sentencing along with reduced charges. His knowledge of the court system spanned beyond just the paperwork, he knew about the judges, and police as well. I would definitely recommend his service to anyone that had the need.
