I was charged with driving under the influence following a police stop in late 2015. I consulted with Jason the following week and was impressed with his review of the available records, recommendations, and desire to take the case to court. He discussed the available options, including the first offender program (a criminal charge with lesser charges), possibility of a plea to reckless driving if offered, and taking the case to court, and the risks and benefits of each.
Ultimately when the case went to trial, Jason performed an excellent cross examination of the arresting officer, including review of the video footage from the stop and legality of the stop itself. Jason's excellent courtroom performance ultimately led the police officer to become distressed and confused while serving as a witness. Given the questionable legality of the stop, in coordination with Jason's excellent questioning and the police officers visible frustration, we were able to plea to a lesser charge.
Many other lawyers that specialize in DUI law, particularly in Delaware, will often recommend accepting the first offender program as the primary option. Throughout the nearly year long process, Jason was willing to consider different options, was open to taking the case to trial, and ultimately resulted in a lesser charge.
While the best option certainly is to avoid drinking and driving; for those in a similar situation looking for a lawyer - Jason is an outstanding, knowledgable, and tenacious attorney that I would highly recommend to anyone.
