You Are Facing the Toughest Drunk Driving Laws in the Nation
The 2004 passage of "Melanie's Law" resulted in Massachusetts having the toughest drunk driving laws nationwide. Regardless of the severity of the penalties, you need to be aware of what you may face and the options you have if convicted of an OUI.

Know the Penalties. Know Your Options.
While harsh, DUI or OUI sentencing guidelines are meant to discourage first and repeat offenses. Jail is not automatic and many of attorney Goldberg-Giuliano's clients are about to obtain an alternative disposition. Again, any type of negotiation short of trial is only done after all the options are explored and the evidence is studied in-depth.
Jail Is Not Always Inevitable in First and Second OUI Offenses
Attorney Joseph J. Goldberg-Giuliano, Attorney at Law, represents clients facing their first or second DUI charge. For those individuals, alternative disposition may be an option. Penalties range from probation to alcohol counseling to driver's license suspension. The goal is to keep you out of jail so you can deal with the issues that resulted in an OUI charge, including alcohol addiction.
Typically, a third OUI and beyond provides no alternative but jail time and will also include heavy fines and a lengthy license suspension.
