The Standardized Field Sobriety Test.

The Standardized Field Sobriety Test (SFST) is a battery of 3 tests performed during a traffic stop in order to determine if a driver is impaired.  If you have never been stopped on suspicion of driving under the influence, there are 3 tests that make up the standardized field sobriety test.  I want you to be informed ahead of time.

Here they are –


1.  The horizontal gaze
2.  The walk and turn
3.  The one-legged stand

Those are the basics of a SFST.  Now, the basics of defending yourself if you have been arrested on a DUI charge…call me immediately!  I am an Ohio DUI and criminal defense attorney Jon Sinn.  I work out of Akron and help Ohioans in defending themselves against criminal charges.  Often, the only sin you may have committed is NOT calling me Jon Sinn at (330) 431-0160.

The Heat is On.

We know that summer heat accelerates domestic violence, but we didn’t see THIS coming!  It seems to be simple social math that familiarity breeds contempt and that can cause the kind of discomfort that may lead to anger and irritation.  Heaven knows we have been through plenty of  challenges this year.

Here is what I can tell you from my twenty plus years of experience defending domestic violence charges in Northeast Ohio…alcohol is often the trigger from which the violence stems.  The kids are home from school which we certainly did not expect and the level of patience in adults can go down exponentially. 

If you or a loved one has been arrested on a charge of domestic violence you have a friend in me.  I am Akron Ohio criminal defense attorney Jon Sinn.  You know, sometimes the only sin you may have committed is not calling me…Jon Sinn.  This is a critical time.  Please don’t waste another minute and call me at (330) 431-0160.
