Georgia has some of the strictest DUI laws in the country. Under Georgia's implied consent law, refusing a breathalyzer test can result in automatic license suspension. A DUI conviction — even a first offense — carries mandatory minimum sentences, fines, community service, DUI school, and a permanent criminal record.
The good news is that DUI charges are highly defensible. Law enforcement must follow strict procedures during a traffic stop, field sobriety tests are subject to human error, and breathalyzer machines must be properly calibrated and maintained. Attorney Sherota knows how to identify and exploit these weaknesses.
Time is critical in DUI cases. You have only 30 days from the date of arrest to request an Administrative License Suspension (ALS) hearing to contest your license suspension. Contact Sherota Law immediately after an arrest.
