This is a common misconception. Not all first-time DUI / OVI charges can be reduced. There are a number of different factors that dictate whether it might be a possibility. The facts of the case (including how you acted on the video, the reason for the stop, how the officer conducted his / her investigation, how you performed on the tests, and whether the officer had probable cause to arrest you), the prosecutor's view of the facts of the case, and many other factors. An experienced DUI lawyer can assess the facts of your case and decide whether it might be a realistic possibility. Call (330) 394-1587.
Another obstacle is the pressure prosecutors are under to fight DUI / OVI cases and to push back against reductions. If a prosecutor learns that the officer conducted their investigation poorly, or that they have evidentiary weaknesses in your case, they will usually negotiate. But, it is a misconception to believe that prosecutors will just casually reduce your charges, just because. This is why it is important to hire an experienced DUI / OVI lawyer who fully understands the arguments that can be raised on your behalf, who is known for fighting these cases, and who is not afraid to take DUI / OVI cases to trial. DUI / OVI cases are litigated more than any other misdemeanor, felony, or criminal case. You want someone fighting on your behalf who knows what they are doing.
