Choosing an attorney is an important step in protecting yourself and your legal rights. There are major stakes at play. A potential criminal conviction including possible jail time. Additionally, you face suspension of your driver’s license which will undoubtedly affect numerous aspects of your daily life. You need to act fast to preserve precious evidence that could lead you to restoring your life.
As a practicing attorney and former State DUI prosecutor, I have handled thousands of DUI’s and Breathalyzer Refusal cases. As an experienced Rhode Island DUI and Refusal attorney, I will review your case to look for any oversights by the arresting department due to the technical nature of these cases. I will look for other evidence that will help defend your rights. I will meet with you and thoroughly go over the evidence the police have against you. We will discuss our strategies and formulate a plan to attack these charges. I will use this information to advocate on your behalf for a dismissal or reduced charge.
I have seen all the issues before and know how to defend your rights. Just because you were arrested for a DUI does not mean you are Guilty. DUIs and Refusals are very technical crimes because of the many constitutional and statutory rights that are provided to a defendant.Remember an Arrest does not mean that you will be convicted. I have beaten many DUI and Refusal cases and look forward to helping you through this troubling time.

I went to Matt in a major time of crisis for me not really knowing at all how the process works or what was in store. He was clear from the beginning on what all our options were, what the next steps were to take, and how to navigate the process. Dealing with a bit of a language barrier was generally not an issue as everything was explained to us very clearly. He is very knowledgeable about both sides of the law as he previously was a prosecutor; he has excellent connections in the system. We retained Matt for a very doable price, and he got us the absolute best possible outcome in the case - complete dismissal. Overall our situation was rather complex and Matt did fantastic work for us, we could not be more satisfied with the results. I would highly recommend anyone in need of criminal defense to call him first.
