Hingham DUI Attorney Respected Defense Attorneys Serving Boston & Beyond

Hingham DUI Attorneys

If you were charged with DUI in the Hingham area, it is important to contact an experienced Hingham DUI Attorney to ensure that your rights are being protected. If you were charged with DUI or OUI of Hanover, Hull, Hingham, Norwell, Rockland, or Scituate then your case will be heard in the Hingham District Court. Attorneys James G. DeGiacomo and Sergey Mikhlin are former prosecutors from the Hingham District Court and have successfully defended hundreds of people there.

Elements of a DUI Case

When charged with a DUI or OUI, the prosecutor must prove three things:

  1. That you were operating a motor vehicle
  2. That you were on a public way.
  3. That you were under the influence of alcohol.

While these may seem easy for the prosecutor to prove, each element can have complications that are important for an experienced Hingham DUI attorney to look into.

Operation. What is operation? Operation has been defined as having control of a motor vehicle when some part of that vehicle is running. This can be easy to prove when the car is seen driving, but the lines can get blurry when someone is parked or is found outside of their car – even if no one else is around.

Public way. What is a public way? A public way is defined as a street or road that the public have the right to access. Driving on Route 3? That’s a public way. What about a long driveway? Or a private road? Those are not public ways.

Intoxication. There are many ways that the prosecutor would like to prove intoxication. They can use blood tests, breathalyzer tests, or simply the observations of a police officer. However, none of these are infallible – especially the observations of a police officer when there are field sobriety tests. An experienced Hingham DUI Attorney has the tools to attack these tests and has been successful in having blood tests, breathalyzer tests, and fields sobriety tests thrown out.

Testimonials from Real People

Hear from Clients in Their Own Words
    "Best Attorney"
    DeGiacomo was the most honest, informative, and humble attorney I have ever met and I recommend him to any person in trouble. He knows what he is talking about!
    - Former Client
    "James treated me with respect and kindness from day one"
    What I found refreshing was that James had a realistic and positive attitude from the beginning. His warmhearted professionalism made me more at ease. James got the best outcome for my 2nd DUI case. I left the courthouse knowing that he had a beneficial impact on my case. I recommend Attorney De Giacomo to anyone who wants the best of the best.
    - EO
    "Highly recommended"
    James was extremely professional, very informative, and most importantly he delivered! I was looking at two felony charges and James was able to get me a deal where the charges will be dismissed as long as I stay out of trouble for a year. Guilty felony charges make getting a job impossible so I’m grateful for his services and would call him again if needed. I highly recommend to use James for your legal issues.
    - Marc F
    "Confident & Reliable"
    Jim took over my case after my 1st attorney had to drop it. Jim is very knowledgeable, he walked me through the steps of the trial process and answered all my questions right away plus explained why certain information wasn’t needed. The trial was postponed twice due to the pandemic but Jim was still in constant communication. Thank you!
