Drunk Driving in Ohio…What to Expect.

More than 20,000 people were killed in alcohol-impaired driving crashes, accounting for nearly one-third of all traffic-related deaths in the U.S. in the latest reporting period.  That is according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, but this has declined over the last three decades as laws have gotten tougher and tougher.

On average, first-time offenders should expect to spend a minimum of one day in jail, while those who are convicted of their second offense should anticipate at least 21 days in prison if found guilty.  The State of Ohio takes all drunk driving very seriously, beginning with the first offense. If you’re convicted you may face a variety of administrative and criminal penalties, including but not limited to fines, a suspended or revoked license, and vehicle impoundment.  .

In many cases, people are arrested for DUI in the state of Ohio and are left to fend for themselves accepting whatever punishment the courts dole out.  That is NOT the case when you hire Akron DUI defense attorney Jon Sinn.  Sometimes the only sin you may have committed is NOT calling Jon.  Attorney Jon Sinn…call him anytime at (330) 431-0160. 

YouTube Speaks Volumes.

Are you a YouTube aficionado?  Not everything on there is a piano-playing cat!  You can learn a lot about things as well as people on this amazing tool which premiered nearly 13 years ago.  These days there are over three billion hours of video viewed per month.  While that is a staggering number already, it just keeps growing.

Are you familiar with criminal case that involved a man by the name of Joshua Gaspar?  He was accused of killing an Ohio State Trooper while driving under the influence of drugs.  This was a story that made national news and was certainly on the minds of many in Northeast Ohio.

Today Joshua Gaspar is a free and very lucky man.  He met Akron criminal defense attorney Jon Sinn.  At one time, Attorney Sinn was part of the prosecution…now he vigorously defends Akron area citizens who are faced with criminal charges.  Do yourself a favor and see the YouTube videos of this historic case and you may discover that the only sin is NOT calling Jon.  Attorney Jon Sinn at (330) 431-0160.

What is Your Capacity?

Have you ever seriously considered what it takes to be over the legal limit of alcohol?  We may know when we have “had too many”, but is it possible to stop at or near the brink?  It might be, but so many factors figure into that.  For instance, a man of approximately 160 pounds SHOULD be able to consume three beers in an hour and barely be under the legal limit.

Now the factors…body weight, gender, tolerance, the type of alcohol that you consume.  Three shots may not equal three beers and you need to be acutely aware of that before you put the keys in the ignition.  Here is another little tidbit.  You may blow a 0.05 and be under the limit, but if you are driving carelessly you will still get pulled over and ticketed!

Suffice to say, we are not all saints in Northeast Ohio.  The day may come when you need aggressive representation in court for a drunk or careless driving charge.  If that day comes you should call Attorney Jon Sinn.  He is Akron’s DUI and careless driving defense attorney.  The only sin would be not calling Jon.  Jon Sinn at (330) 431-0160.

Holiday Gathers of Good People.

You have heard it before, sometimes “bad things happen to good people”.  Good people are all around this holiday season.  We hope that you and yours are having the best holiday of a lifetime.  No one wants to even think about the spiral of events that would occur of one of the good people in your family were accused of a crime.

Not to alarm you, but so many things can go wrong, such as an OVI charge in Ohio.  Maybe you or someone you love gets arrested for holding illegal narcotics.  You could even be in the wrong place at the wrong time during a homicide or a robbery.  Maybe your record is spotless, but now you are the prime suspect and you need aggressive defense.

Northeast Ohio criminal defense attorney Jon Sinn has spent the last two plus decades navigating the justice system of the Buckeye State.  If something happens to one of the “good people” that you know in Portage or Summit County, Ohio, Jon Sinn will be there to represent them.  In 2017 the only sin is NOT calling Jon…Jon Sinn at (330) 431-0160.

Choosing the Right Criminal Attorney.

What are you looking for in a Northeast Ohio criminal attorney?  Well, it would certainly be nice to know that he has had over two decades of success in defending the accused of our area.  The next thing you might ask is how satisfied are his previous clients?  If that prospective attorney whom you wish to go to battle for you has a PERFECT client satisfaction rating that would be comforting to say the least.

When we say a perfect rating we don’t mean by some organization of which you have never heard.  We are talking about perfection as rated by AVVO (look it up if you don’t know them) and The American Institute of Criminal Law Attorneys.  When you find out that he used to be a senior prosecutor then you know you have chosen someone who knows both sides of the equation.

If all of that sounds too good to be true - trust me, it isn’t.  The attorney who has represented the accused for over twenty years in Akron, Barberton, Bedford, Canton, Cuyahoga Falls, and throughout Northeast Ohio is Jon Sinn.  Attorney Sinn is your best choice for criminal defense in this area.  The only sin is NOT calling Jon.  If you are facing a criminal charge pick up the phone and call (330) 431-0160.

A DWI is Still a DWI.

Some people are living in an unreal world.  They actually think that if they are arrested for a DWI in the state of Ohio that the severity of the charge will be lessened if they are operating a motorcycle or scooter.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  You could be driving a lawn mower, a tractor, even a golf cart and it is still considered a “motor vehicle”.

Just because the accused does not feel that he or she could have done much damage, serious legal problems may still follow a DWI arrest.  Just using the motorcycle as an example you may be operating the smallest vehicle on the highway.  If you are the one who was deemed to have been driving impaired that much larger car is not at fault…you are.

If you have been accused of operating any sized motor vehicle while under the influence it is essential to call Attorney Jon Sinn.  He serves the counties of Stark, Portage, and Summit in Northeast Ohio.  Attorney Sinn is an aggressive defender of the rights of those accused of DWI in northeast Ohio.  The only sin is NOT calling Jon…attorney Jon Sinn at (330) 431-0160.
