TEN DUI SECRETS YOU SHOULD KNOW

1. Refusing a Blood or Breath Test is Not an Admission of Guilt: Georgia law only provides for a presumption of the presence of a prohibited substance in your system if you refuse to take a State-Administered Blood or Breath test in a DUI case.
2. If You Refuse the Test You Will NOT Definitely Lose Your License for One Year: …

Hiring a Bibb County DUI Attorney

A Macon DUI is Serious and Can Result in Fines and Jail Time

Under Georgia law, you can be fined up to $1000.00 with up to 40% tacked on as court costs. You can spend up to 12 months in jail for a first DUI, do 40 hours community service, be subject to drug and alcohol testing for one year and serve 12 months of reporting probation. Your license may be suspended anywhere from 120 days to 5 years. Do not try to handle your Macon DUI without an experienced Bibb County DUI Attorney

Advice as to who you decide to hire as your Macon DUI lawyer: 1) Don’t hire a DUI lawyer based solely on price. Sometimes the cheapest lawyer–especially if they plea you to a DUI you don’t deserve at the first opportunity–can be the most expensive. Cost per hour is the best way to compare lawyers. If a lawyer charges $1000, but only spends an hour on your case, that’s $1000 dollars an hour! We, unlike bargain basement firms, spend an average of 10 hours on every DUI case. 2)  Ask any attorney that you speak with whether he/she has tried any DUI jury trials and how many not guilty verdicts he/she has received in the past 2 years; 3)  Ask any attorney that you speak with whether he/she has studied police field sobriety training manuals and breath test machine, owner’s and area supervisor’s manuals. If not, they cannot adequately cross examine DUI police officers or breath test operators. A DUI lawyer who can’t answer these questions is not ready for a real DUI jury trial and is not worth your time and money.  

You can meet us in person at our office or we can start your case over the phone or internet. We know your are busy and we value your time. Our first consultation is always free and we will send an ALS hearing request letter for free as long as you pa the Georgia Department of Driver Services’ $150.00 filing fee. We’ve handled all types of Georgia DUI cases including those with or without breath and blood test results, refusals of both blood, breath or urine, cases with or without Standardized Field Sobriety Evaluations. We have handled DUI accidents, fatalities drugs, fleeing and eluding the police, marijuana possession, and felony and misdemeanor obstruction. There is no set of facts our experienced Bibb County DUI attorneys haven’t seen at least once before. Our DUI defense system is highly refined and is a time-tested formula for winning DUI cases. We do not miss critical facts and work for even the most difficult DUI acquittals.
