Colorado BUI Lawyer

Boating Under the Influence in Colorado

Attorney Chris Cessna served as a BUI interdiction law enforcement officer at both the state and federal level for over 10 years.  Mr. Cessna has extensive formal U.S. Coast Guard training in BUI interdiction, and years of actual enforcement experience on this nation's second largest man-made reservoir (Lake Powell/Glen Canyon National Recreation Area).  Mr Cessna also has years of experience as a BUI officer in Colorado on our state's public lakes and reservoirs while enforcing the Colorado BUI and other boating laws.  

Boating under the influence can lead to serious accidents and injuries in the same way that driving under the influence in an automobile can. When a person violates the law by boating under the influence (BUI), he or she can expect to be arrested and face criminal charges.

If you are facing criminal charges for boating under the influence (BUI), it’s important consult a DUI/BUI attorney who has experience defending and litigating BUI cases.  BUI charges will be brought against anyone found operating or driving a boat with a blood alcohol concentration of .08 or more.   

When faced with BUI charges, hiring a skilled and experienced DUI/BUI attorney is essential if you wish to protect your rights and avoid such legal penalties as imprisonment, fines, community service, probation, restitution (if someone was injured in an accident), mandatory alcohol-awareness classes, and more.   In addition, a well-practiced BUI lawyer can stand up to the prosecution and aggressively fight your charges throughout the DUI/BUI process.
