BUII (Navegación bajo la influencia del alcohol)

Under Oregon law, boaters accused of operating their vessels while under the influence of alcohol or drugs can face DUII charges. Potential penalties for conviction on this charge are just as tough as those that come with driving under the influence in a motor vehicle — jail, fines, revoked license, embarrassment for your family and damage to your reputation.

If you have been arrested for a boating DUII, you need an experienced defense attorney in your corner who will work hard toward a positive outcome and help put you back behind the wheel. At the Gilroy Napoli Short Law Group in Portland and Salem, we aggressively defend people against all types of Conducir bajo los efectos del alcohol charges.

Our accomplished equipo legal has más de 25 años de experiencia combinada that can benefit you. We carefully examine every detail about the day you were arrested for BUI on an area, lake or river in the region — especially those conditions that could have mistakenly convinced law enforcement that you needed to be pulled over.

All kinds of things can go wrong with a boating under the influence arrest, just as police can be deceived into thinking that a motorist is driving drunk. Protect your rights, starting today, by calling the Gilroy Napoli Short Law Group for a free consultation at 503-747-7198.

Were You Arrested for Boating Under the Influence? We Can Help.

In Oregon, a BUII charge — boating under the influence of intoxicants — applies to a wide variety of vessels, not just motorized boats. Any person found drinking to excess on any type of watercraft, not just the person operating it, can be arrested and face these charges. It is also possible that you could be charged with BUII if you allow an intoxicated person to drive your boat or personal watercraft.

Warning: A community service or diversion program is not a rehabilitation option for people accused of BUII in Oregon. If you or someone close to you has been charged with any kind of BUII, you can look to the Grupo de abogados Gilroy Napoli Short for in-depth investigation, skillful negotiation with prosecutors and aggressive litigation in a courtroom if necessary.

Jason Wheeless is one incredible attorney. From the very beginning I felt at ease and confident he would do everything in his power to achieve an ideal outcome for me. In less than 10 days Jason was able to do what I thought would be nearly impossible. I can’t thank you enough, Jason, you are simply amazing! I also want to thank you for your kind and sincere words of support and encouragement. I am truly grateful for your counsel and wisdom.

I am so grateful for the guidance and support my attorney, Jenna Richards, provided. She gave me sound, straightforward advice and always made sure I understood my options. Most importantly, Jenna never made me feel judged or like a bad person—something that meant so much to me during a very difficult and unfortunate situation. She stood by me through the entire process and helped me get through it step by step. I would highly recommend Jenna to anyone who needs not only strong legal representation but also compassion and understanding along the way.

Melodie did an awesome job on my case. She was involved for over a year until I went to trial and I could not have asked for a better outcome. Saved me from incarceration and helped me through the whole process which was a very difficult case. Could not have asked for a better lawyer and support system! Thank you so much Melodie!!!

Very professional and helpful law group. Right off the bat, they made me feel like they had my best interests at heart. Never felt any judgement or any sense that I was wasting their time with my questions, no matter how simple the questions may have been. And they always made themselves readily available to help me with sudden unexpected concerns that may have come up.
