accidental owi

Accidentally took evening medications in AM. Became confused on drive to work. Arrested for OWI. No alcohol or narcotics. No driving citations for 40 yrs. Damaged a traffic sign and my bumper. State still came after me hard. Mr. Melowski diligently pursued this for 1-1/2 yrs, and in the end, got the ...charge reduced to traffic violations. No OWI. I believe this was a fair outcome for both sides, and the best I could have hoped for. Mr. Melowski is, in my opinion, as skilled and fine an attorney as you'll find. A real pro.

The Best DUI attorney in the state of Wisconsin

Dennis Melowski is the most professional and amazing attorney i have dealt with (i interviewed 6 regarding my case - and 3 recommended him). He is truly amazing...he reduced my OWI to a minor traffic violation and had refusal charge completely dropped. He will take his time with the courts ma...king sure he has every detail and use all of that data in an aggressive matter to protect his clients. His proven track record confirms he is the best dui/owi attorney in the country.

Clearly, the best move I made

When I was ticketed for OWI just over a year ago, I was convinced the situation I was facing was hopeless. Though I tested at barely over the legal limit, everything I had read online and everyone I was talking to only made me more dour and certain that my license would be suspended in a few short w...eeks and my life would be totally turned upside down. For starters, my employment/career depends on maintaining a safe/clean driving record, and even though I was a first time offender, that would not exclude me from an immediate suspension of driving privileges--and the drunk driving conviction would remain part of my permanent record for life. I talked to many attorneys in following days with mixed results. Some flat out stated that a long and costly fight would not get me the results I wanted and needed, especially with a test over the .08 limit that the authorities had. I finally spoke to Dennis who was clear and confident, especially upon learning some vital facts of my case, and he had an astounding record of success to back him up. He didn't sugarcoat my case, but did make it clear to me that we had much at our disposal in what would probably be a long, drawn out fight. Over the next calender year it took for my case to finally come to trial, I was amazed at the resources and knowledge Dennis and his staff brought to an OWI/DWI defense. It is solely what his firm practices and that commitment shows in their skill and knowledge of how to fight and defend these cases. After a long year of conferences, pre-trial conferences and ultimate trial with a recalcitrant DA and municipal judge, Dennis was able to get my initial OWI charge reduced to a non-alcohol related violation and save, not just my present job but my driving record and all the upheaval that a DUI conviction would have brought upon my life. If you are facing an OWI/DUI citation, I cannot recommend him enough.

First Time Offender

I had just passed my CDL, found a job driving semi when I was stopped for going 67 in a 50 m.p.h. zone. I was given a breathalizer test which I was told I failed. I hired Dennis and was amazed. He informed the judge that if my license was suspended, I would lose my job. Dennis and Attorney Singh... convinced the judge to stay the suspension. I kept my license and my job while Dennis continued to work at resolving my case. He found many flaws which in turn convinced the prosecutor to negotiate a lesser charge. My OWI and BAC were dropped and I agreed to inattentive driving. I lost 4 points, completed 20 hours of community service, and paid my fine. None of this impacted my license or CDL. I have referred friends to Dennis and will continue to do so. From the beginning, all my friends, even co-workers told me that I was "done". I would lose my license and probably never get another job as a semi driver.

DWI 2011

Dennis is the man your looking for look no further. He will handle every detail of the case in a swift and speedy manor. We never met Dennis but he will be on our Christmas card list for life. He not only takes care of the judicial end of the case he becomes your coach and your friend. As you know... there is a lot of stress involved in a case like this. He was always there to give just the right kind words of encouragement when he knew you were letting the stress get to you. You just know that he is going to do everything humanly possible to get great results. My results were phenomenal. He saved my career as I have a CDL and this would have ended my use of it with any other relsult than the one obtained. He had my ticket reduced to a minor traffic violation inattentive driving. All without taking off work at all to go to court he handled everything. I know amazing right? We couldn't have done this without him Im sure of it. He is worth every penny you pay him and more. Do yourself a favor and give him a call it will be one of the best things you'll do today. Thanks again Dennis God Speed with all your clients, but thanks again for all you did for us.
