Man In Dayton Has Charges Reduced After A Hit and Run

Posted On: May 11th, 2016 by Bradley J. Groene

If you are facing criminal charges, it is vital that you contact an experienced and skilled attorney, who will passionately work to help you find the best possible outcome. In Dayton, a man in his mid-40’s made a very serious lapse in judgment after a traffic accident that led to criminal charges. Late one night, the man was driving home, until he struck a parked car. Instead of remaining with his vehicle to deal with the situation, he abandoned the scene and went home. The police quickly caught up with the man and charged him with a hit and run. This criminal traffic offense is considered a first-degree misdemeanor and carries the possibility of spending 180 days in jail, paying a $1,000 fine, and a suspended driver license. The man, who makes his living as a nurse wanted to diminish these negative consequences; therefore, he contacted Luftman, Heck & Associates.

Once retained, the experienced criminal defense attorney Bradley J. Groene aggressively represented his client in Dayton Municipal Court and spoke with the assigned prosecutor. These negotiations resulted in the prosecution agreeing to reduce the hit and run charge to reckless operation. While this lesser offense will result in points on his license, it won’t include a license suspension, a hefty fine or time in jail. The client was relieved to be spared theses harsh consequences and after paying a small fine and court costs, he could move on with his life.
