West Virginia Man Plows Into Home Charged With DUI

Logue Law Group

West Virginia authorities charged a Raleigh County man with first-offense DUI and left the scene of an accident after he allegedly drove into a house recently, according to WBOY.com.

Police said the investigation into the crash caused by Jordan Isaac Hardy, 22, will continue. Officers said nobody was injured in the crash. The house sustained no damage, according to the news agency.

Attorney Sean Logue’s Take

Although this is Mr. Hardy’s first DUI offense, his case cannot be taken lightly. A crash was involved, and police have accused him of leaving the scene of an accident. However, this story begs the question: If Mr. Hardy fled the scene, how do police know if he was capable of safe driving at the time of the crash?

Further, how do police know he had operational control of the vehicle at the time of the crash? In DUI cases, these are elements that must be established by police for charges to stick, and Mr. Hardy should contact an attorney immediately to get the best possible defense.

Specifically, he needs to hire an attorney who isn’t afraid to take the charges to trial and fight for his rights. I am a seasoned, experienced attorney who has been distinguished as a member of the Top 40 Under 40 Trial Lawyers organization, and also through inclusion in the Pennsylvania Super Lawyers Rising Stars list. I was also named one of the 10 best criminal defense attorneys in the state of West Virginia by the American Institute of Criminal Law Attorneys, and I will fight for your rights if retained.

Client Reviews

I had hired Mr. Logue a few years ago for my gf at the time for charges she had gotten before I had met her, for prostitution. Big mistake to date her and pay for her lawyer as we didn’t work out but Mr. Logue far exceeded expectations. He got nearly all charges in 2 separate cases dropped for her...

I was arrested on a felony 3 charge looking at at least up to 2 years in prison. County District Attorney didn't want to negotiate. After a lot of hard work, Sean was able to plead the case all the way down to just 90 days jail with a work release. Better deal than I realistically could have hoped...

Former Client

Mr. Logue took our son’s cases on very short notice (the first lawyer we hired wasn’t getting anywhere with either of the prosecutors and had actually turned one of the cases over to the court-appointed attorney). We hired Mr. Logue to go to trial if needed, but he worked with both prosecutors and...
