DUI

Georgia Drunk Driving Defense Attorney

If you have been arrested for a charge of driving under the influence (DUI) in the metro Atlanta area, your immediate concerns are clear: You want to avoid jail time, keep your driving privileges, and put this legal problem behind you as soon as possible.

Your goals are ours at the law offices of Burns, Speights & Grisham, P.C. Contact us to schedule a free initial consultation. If you have been arrested for drunk driving and either refuse the Breathalyzer test or if you take the test and blow over the legal limit, the arresting officer is required to provide you with a Notice of Administrative Suspension.

After receiving this notice, you have ten business days to request an administrative hearing to challenge your driver’s license suspension. This hearing is separate from any criminal charges, and relates only to your driver’s license. At the hearing, your attorney will present the case for preserving your driving privileges.
