DUI amended to Reckless Driving in Rhode Island

Our client was charged with Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol in Rhode Island. A DUI in Rhode Island has potential penalties including a license suspension, an ignition interlock, jail time, a criminal conviction, probation, community service, alcohol counseling and/or DUI classes and fines and fees.

Our attorneys attended multiple court dates and conferences, prepared motions, and deliberated with the prosecutor and judge in an effort to find an acceptable resolution.

We were eventually able to persuade the prosecutor to agree to amend the charge from Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol to Reckless Driving and receive a filing as a disposition. This allowed our client to avoid a criminal conviction, and an alcohol related offense on their record as well as additional suspension time, fines and fees, community service and alcohol treatment.
