Gainesville DUI Lawyer

LEGAL ASSISTANCE FOR UNDER 21 DUI CHARGES

Georgia lawmakers have passes a statute aimed to deter underage drinking. If you are pulled over, under 21, and you are found to have over a .02% blood alcohol concentration (BAC) you will be charged with a DUI whether you are impaired or not. Unfortunately, a BAC .02% is very low and can be caused by environmental factors not alcohol consumption. Many studies indicate that the breath testing device used by police officers is not 100% accurate; results can be impacted by external factors. An under 21 DUI conviction can lead to the suspension of your license for six months to a year, an expensive fine, and probation. You may also have a lifetime criminal record that permanently impacts your future. This is a serious legal matter - you should not hesitate to contact an experienced Gainesville DUI lawyer.
