In 2007 I decided to dedicate my law practice to the defense of DUI/OVI. I was already a Board Certified Trial Attorney so my trial skills were excellant. I joined the National College for DUI Defense and actively began acquiring the expertise i needed to be a premier OVI defense attorney.
In March of 2010 I attended and completed a 24 hour Course in DUI DETECTION AND STANDARIZED FIELD SOBRIETY TESTING.
In 2009/10, 11, 12, and 13 I attended the Mastering Scientific Evidence Conference hosted by the National College for DUI Defense and became an expert on the breath testing machines used in the State of Ohio.
In September of 2012 I successfully completed a Hands-On 40-hour Analytical Chemistry training in Forensic Chromatography VIII: Theory & Pracice at Axion Training Institute, Inc./Analytical Laboratories, Inc.
I still needed the drug expertise to be able to defend any OVI charges in the State of Ohio because the statute refers to "under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs". In May of 2013 I attended and completed a Hands-On Forensic Drug Analysis II course for 40-hours at Axion Training Institute, Inc./Analytical Laboratories, Inc.
I now have more expertise and training than most lawyers and prosecutors to successfully defend OVI cases in Ohio.
I am a certified instructor of NHTSA/Standardized Field Sobriety Test. I have completed the AXION Laboratory Blood Course in gas chromatography, liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry which allows us to challenge blood and urine testing for alcohol and drugs. I have become a pot expert through training. This allows us to successfully represent clients who are charged with driving under the influence of marijuana and other drugs.

OVI-July 2
I will start by saying that this happened July 2, 2015 and I am still in proceedings... I contacted Mr. Quinn the next day and he made a point to personally visit me at my home to discuss this matter! He made it very clear that he is an aggressive and very knowledgeable attorney that has specialized ...

First Time OVI Reduced to Physical Control
What started with your typical Saturday evening out with friends ended in a not so typical arrest and a first time OVI. This was my first and only offense of any kind to date. Firstly, I will say being cooperative with the arresting officer can indeed be a wise choice, and fortunately in my case it c...

Good Attorney and a Great Guy!
Patrick was very knowledgeable in his field, and honest when answering questions. The outcome of the case came almost exactly as he described the first time I spoke with him, before he even read my full file or spoke with a prosecutor. He negotiated my dual hit skip, obstruction of justice and high t...

Solid Professional Service
I was pulled over in Oct for OVI and blew a high tier test. I made the initial error of going to my arraignment hearing without counsel and without true knowledge almost plead guilty thinking there was nothing I could do anyway. Long story short I plead not guilty and decided to contact a lawyer who ...
