Douglas & Cobb County DUI Lawyer

Arrested for DUI?

If you have been arrested for DUI, you need to protect your rights by retaining a Douglas & Cobb County DUI lawyer who can help you with a strong legal defense. In order to avoid jail time, license suspension and steep fines, fighting a DUI charge makes sense. While many people think they have no choice but to plead guilty, this is actually not the case. Many a DUI case has been won through skilled legal representation by an attorney who knows the defenses to use under these circumstances. At The Faucette Law Firm, LLC, we have years of experience in representing clients against their DUI charges and successfully defending them.

Your defense can consist of challenging evidence presented against you, such as field sobriety tests or blood and breath tests. These often are inconsistent and inaccurate and can be disputed and possibly thrown out. Probable cause in having been stopped in the first place is another area of defense which we will look into when questioning the officer who conducted your police stop.

Penalties for DUI Conviction

A DUI conviction in Georgia has serious implications that can result in a $300-$1000 fine, jail time from 10 days up to one year, 40 hours of community service, a mandatory DUI risk reduction program and 12 months of probation for a first time offense. If you have prior convictions you can expect even harsher penalties.

To avoid these consequences, consulting with our firm immediately allows us to represent you at your ALS hearing, which can help to avoid a license suspension and permit us to question the arresting officer. This can develop into favorable information being obtained to aggressively represent you. Call us today for skilled legal representation against your DUI charges. We serve Douglas County, Douglasville, Fulton County, and Cobb County.
