Underage OVI Lawyer in Cleveland, OH

Experienced Legal Help for Drivers Under 21 Facing OVI Charges

Ohio has a strict “zero tolerance” law for drivers under the age of 21. An underage OVI charge in Cleveland can have lifelong consequences, including license suspension, fines, higher insurance rates, and a record that may not be sealable, depending on the charge and age. Even a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of just 0.02 is enough to trigger an OVUAC offense, which is far below the legal limit for adult drivers. At Patrick M. Farrell Co. L.P.A., we know how damaging an underage OVI conviction can be for students, young workers, and families. Attorney Pat Farrell has more than 30 years of courtroom experience and has successfully defended underage clients in Cleveland Municipal Court, the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas, and courts throughout Cuyahoga County. His familiarity with local prosecutors and judges gives our clients an important advantage when building a strong defense. 

If the driver is under 18, the case is typically handled in the Cuyahoga County Juvenile Court, where procedures and dispositions differ from adult court (e.g., no adult jail, but potential detention, probation, treatment, and license consequences).
