Peachtree City DUI Attorneys

Most people place a high value on their freedom. Being able to drive when you want, and spending your time how you choose are issues that are important. However, if you have been arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) these liberties can be taken away from you.

If you have been arrested in Peachtree City for drunk driving, you need a good legal team on your side. Our attorneys here at the Law Offices of Webb, Willis, and Kohn only practice DUI law. We have the experience and knowledge on our side that you need to avoid spending time in jail or losing your license.

There are many legal ramifications that come with a conviction. They may include:

• Steep fines
• Jail time
• Community service
• License suspension
• Probation.

These are just the legal penalties. There are other consequences that come with being found guilty. Many jobs will not hire you if you do have a clean driving record. If you are a commercial driver, you will lose your job. Embarrassment and humiliation are also common when you are convicted of a DUI.

Our DUI attorneys at the Law Offices of Webb, Willis, and Kohn try to help you avoid these penalties. There are many ways that they can go about it.

Before you go to trial, you will be required to attend a preliminary hearing (if you are pleading “not guilty.”) During this time, one of our attorneys argues your case and provides evidence on your behalf. If the prosecuting attorney does not have sufficient evidence to go to trial, your case will be dropped.

If your case is not dropped at this time, you have two options. The first is to go to trial. Our attorneys will explore several different defense options. If there was not probable cause when you were pulled over, or your blood alcohol content (BAC) was not tested properly, you can win your case.

Another option is taking a plea deal. While you will have to plead guilty, your DUI charge can be lessened to a reckless driving charge. This is usually done only if you have a good criminal record.

Dealing with a DUI is difficult. The legal system in Georgia is complex, and you need a confident and experienced attorney to walk you through the steps, and the Law Offices of Webb, Willis, and Kohn is here to help.
