Practice Areas

The Dominy Law Firm represents people charged with criminal offenses, and we have three practice areas: DUI / OVI defense, Serious Vehicular Crimes defense, and criminal defense. Our firm does not practice several areas of law and handle an occasional criminal case. We only handle criminal defense cases, and we only practice in central Ohio.

It is highly recommended that you research prospective attorneys thoroughly and hire a lawyer with expertise and experience handling your particular type of case. Our firm has been practicing criminal defense since 1997, and the firm's experience includes felony offenses (murder, rape, robbery, drugs, etc), misdemeanor offenses (shoplifting, underage drinking, marijuana, assault, etc) and traffic offenses (DUI / OVI, serious vehicular crimes, and traffic tickets).

The Dominy Law Firm represent clients charged with DUI / OVI (drunk driving) in Columbus and central Ohio. If you are charged with DUI / OVI, other pages of this website will help you understand the DUI / OVI investigation and the court process, as well as the Administrative License Suspension and limited driving privileges. You should be aware of the penalties for DUI / OVI, which include a jail sentence (or driver intervention program), a fine, a license suspension, and possible yellow license plates, vehicle immobilization, ignition interlock, and SCRAM. You should also be aware of the points on your license and the habitual offender registry. If there is a question you have about Ohio DUI / OVI which is not answered in this website, you may want to read our book:  the Ohio DUI / OVI Guide (Rivers Edge Publishing).  

This Firm represents clients charged with serious vehicular crimes in Columbus and Central Ohio, such as Vehicular Homicide, Vehicular Assault, and Involuntary Manslaughter. Expertise in DUI / OVI issues is beneficial to these cases because many of them involve issues like breath tests, blood tests, urine tests, and field sobriety tests. The same is true of repeat DUI / OVI offenses and felony DUI / OVI.  The lawyers at our firm authored and edited the Ohio Vehicular Homicide Guide (Rivers Edge Publishing) and the Ohio Vehicular Assault Guide (Rivers Edge Publishing).
