Attorney Insights

“Avenue sits right on the water, so summer brings boats, ramps, and the occasional boating under the influence stop. A BUI is a real charge with real penalties, not a slap on the wrist. If you are stopped on the water near Avenue, call us before you talk to anyone.”

Jonathan L. Haskell, Esq., The Law Offices of Haskell & Dyer
