Is this your first DUI? Maybe you’ve never driven under the influence before, or maybe you have just been lucky, but for whatever reason, if this is your first DUI, it is important for you to get help fighting it. Why should it concern you, when it is a first offense? Because even a first DUI is a serious matter in the state of Georgia.
If this is your first DUI, you are likely unfamiliar with Georgia laws regarding DUI penalties. The simple truth is, if you are convicted of a first DUI, you will spend at least 24 hours in jail, and incur up to a one-year license suspension. It will also cost you quite a bit of money, with fines ranging from $300-$1000, not including court costs, surcharges, reinstatement costs, and expenses to complete the terms of the sentence. You may also be required to fulfill other conditions, including community, drug and alcohol evaluation, or drivers education programs.
The right DUI attorney can help you navigate your first DUI. Your attorney can determine whether the police involved in your arrest performed any procedures incorrectly. It is possible that your charges can be reduced to reckless driving, and in some cases, your attorney may be able to have the charges dismissed entirely.
