Upon receipt of your call, we will fully explain all your options, common police mistakes, proven DUI defenses that work, expungement of records, how to save your license, the ways in which DUI cases can be dismissed prior to trial and the very best way to proceed in your case depending upon your facts.

Jack I. Hyatt is fully licensed to practice in every Ocean City county as well as the Maryland Federal court. Even if you believe you are guilty, the state may not be able to prove you are guilty. Our aggressive representation will enable us to target your available defenses to get your case dismissed. You can either schedule an appointment, or if you are more than 20 miles from our office, or out of state, you can begin your case by telephone in which event, the steps we take and the result will be identical.

***Both Maryland and out of state lawyers have chosen Jack I. Hyatt to represent them in their personal DUI cases.***

As a past Assistant State's Attorney, he has gained experience in over 20,000 cases, thoroughly knows the state's play book, understands police mistakes, and is able to use both sides of the law to target potential available defenses to get your case dismissed prior to trial, keep your license, avoid a PBJ, and a criminal conviction for DUI and multi-year insurance increases. If you have questions ask Ocean City DUI Lawyer Jack Hyatt 410-486-1800.

The police are required to follow strict procedures. Failure to do so can lead to the dismissal of your DUI case. What is referred to as a "Technicality" or "Loophole", is actually a way of using the constitution to have your case DUI dismissed. I understand how to dismantle the toughest cases, even with the highest breath test results. I also understand exactly how physical or mental illnesses or disabilities can be confused with DUI and the very best way to project these defenses to the court and also recognize when they will not work. Not every lawyer has the same training and experience to defend DUI cases.

We offer you an excellent opportunity to avoid a guilty plea, a permanent DUI or PBJ conviction on your record that often can never be expunged, multi-year insurance increases and possible fine or jail sentence. Each case is different and past records are no assurance that the lawyer will reach a favorable result in any future case. "Justice is your right, we demand it" Upon receipt of your call we will target your available defenses. If you have questions ask Ocean City DUI Lawyer Jack Hyatt 410-486-1800.

Because you were charged with DUI in Ocean City, Speeding, Driving on a Suspended License or Radar does not mean the State can prove their case. While most police officers perform their tasks properly, there are many instances when their acts, omissions, or failure to comply with detailed procedures when giving a ticket, or making an arrest, creates a valid and enforceable defense to enable your case to be dismissed prior to trial. Solid preparation and a knowledgable Ocean City DWI Lawyer, with years of courtroom experience, who understands the sequences of arrest and trial are your best defenses and chances to get your case dismissed prior to trial.

As the result of your interview, I will detect the weakest link or links of the state's case and if a defense exists, I will detect it, raise it on your behalf and have your case dismissed prior to trial.

During your interview, I will ask detailed questions to determine what happened when you were charged and will explain what defenses will work to get your case dismissed. Just because the state has charged you with DUI does not mean you are guilty or the state state can prove you are guilty. Every case and factual sequence has a weakest link. The fact is, in numerous cases, the state absolutely can not prove guilt.

I have been in that very same position, for many years, involved in many thousands of cases, as a past assistant State's Attorney. I know how to seek out the weak elements in the state's case and often can have the case completely dismissed prior to your trial.

Explaining to the court you were going with the flow of traffic, did not have a lot to drink, your speedometer was, or was not working, that other vehicles were traveling at a similar same speed, will provide your best chance of a busy, but polite judge, imposing a guilty verdict, causing an accumulation of points, an insurance premium increase and possible loss of your license. You can walk into any traffic court, at any time, and watch how these excuses do not work, but consistently result in points on your record and a substantial increase in insurance costs.

Jack I. Hyatt is a seasoned, and experienced trial Ocean City DUI Lawyer, having an extensive knowledge of the Ocean City traffic court system, bringing over 30 years of courtroom experience, in many thousands of cases, to enable you to have the best opportunity to get your case dismissed. He has tried over 20,000 cases for the State of Ocean City as an Assistant State's Attorney For Baltimore City. This, day in, day out, continuous courtroom experience has enabled him to have a clear understanding how the Ocean City court system works, from the point of the initial charge throughout the entire court process. If you were stopped due to radar, photo radar, laser, lidar, vascar, police car pace or airplane pace, Mr. Hyatt's specific knowledge will enable him to zero in to detect essential elments of non compliance and get your case dismissed.

Frequently, knowlege of specific DUI and traffic court decisions and statutes, makes the entire difference between wining and losing. Motions filed with the court are meaningless, without incorporating these specific legal authorities into the documents filed on your behalf. Busy trial judges, who hear hear many different tyes of cases, may not be as knowledgeable as a dedicated Ocean City DUI Lawyer who can bring specific knowledge to each case which will make all of the difference between wining and losing.

Mr. Hyatt is fully licensed to practice in every Ocean City, the Maryland Federal Court as well as the United States Supreme Court.

Throughout your case, he will require the State to prove every single element of their case beyond a reasonable doubt, which often, they can not do. He will ask detailed questions begining when and why you were stopped, what did the arresting officer observe, how detailed is his memory, was the stop legal, was any search legal, reviewing what was said to induce you to speak, take any tests, were field tests administered properly, did the officer fully know how to administer the, was all machinery used in good repair, was all machinery used tested properly, was the machinery timely tested, did the officer know how to properly use the machinery, did the officer who tested the machinery know how to properly test it, when did the officer last qualify on the machinery are examples of premininary questions.

It only takes one of these non-compliant elements to be detected to enable Mr. Hyatt to get your case dismissed prior to your trial.

Our office represents numerous parties around the country who do not reside in Ocean City. If you reside outside Ocean City, or more than twenty miles from our office, and your case is in the Ocean City Court system, you can begin your case be mail. Whether you begin your case by scheduling an office appointment, or by mail, what will be done, every sequence, every procedure and the end result will be identical. If you have questions ask Ocean City DUI Lawyer Jack Hyatt 410-486-1800.

Attacking the breath testing machine's accuracy based upon its record of failure during certification tests may cast sufficient doubt upon reliability of the machine to either cause the judge to exclude the test results or convince the jury not to believe the state's BAC reading. If you have questions ask Ocean City DUI Lawyer Jack Hyatt 410-486-1800.

If you are to be tested on the official state BAC equipment, be certain that you inform the officers about any physical problems or environmental interferers which may have a bearing on your test results. The state's test may be later excluded if it is non-specific for detection of alcohol.

Bridgework or false teeth may "trap" mouth alcohol and contaminate a breath machine sample. The failure of police to cause dentures to be removed before a test can be grounds for dismissal of charges, or at least grounds for excluding the state's breath test results.

If a police officer fails to continuously observe a defendant for the required waiting period under state law, this can be the ground for excluding the state's BAC results. If you have questions ask Ocean City DUI Lawyer Jack Hyatt 410-486-1800.
