An Alcohol-Related Offense Can Affect Your Career And Future

A recent report to Congress states that 53 percent of Ohioans ages 18 through 20 drank alcohol in the past month. Although underage drinking is commonplace — and even tacitly accepted by many institutions — there can be severe legal consequences for those who are cited or arrested by law enforcement.

If you have alcohol-related charges pending against you, it is important to take them seriously. License suspension, jail time, fines, diversion classes and community service are a few of the common punishments imposed on those convicted of underage drinking and OVI, but the blemish on a young person’s criminal record is often the most damaging consequence.

If you live in Warren, Butler, Clermont or Hamilton counties, it is important to protect your future by speaking with an experienced Cincinnati underage alcohol defense lawyer. The attorneys at Rittgers Rittgers & Nakajima are known for their outstanding criminal defense. To see some of our results, visit our Criminal Representative Cases page.

Fake ID Charges In Ohio

If you have been charged with offenses related to possessing, using or manufacturing fake IDs, it is extremely risky to plead guilty or no contest and leave your fate and future in the hands of a judge. Not only may the legal punishment be severe and involve forfeiture or jail time, but the conviction can restrict your career options. Employers and licensing boards in the medical, legal and law enforcement sectors take the criminal records of applicants seriously and may disregard your candidacy if you have a fake/false identification conviction.

An experienced Cincinnati fake ID lawyer can find any weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. Each fake ID arrest is different, but a skilled attorney can seek favorable terms through a plea bargain or perhaps even achieve an outright dismissal of the charges.
