Defending Against DUI Charges
Driving under the influence (DUI) or drunk driving charges can happen to anyone. For many people, this may be their first and only contact with the criminal justice system. While it can feel overwhelming to face these types of charges, it is important to keep in mind that you are not alone. Defenses are available and a skilled lawyer can help protect your rights and your future when you have been charged with this type of crime.
At Cansino Blanchette Law Firm, LLC, our attorneys have extensive experience handling DUI charges in Georgia. We will do everything we can to help you build a strong defense that is designed to minimize the potentially harsh consequences of a criminal charge.
We Know How To Challenge The Evidence Against You
Too often, people are tempted to simply plead guilty to a drunk driving charge in an effort to move forward with their lives. In many cases, people’s blood alcohol concentration (BAC) will be measured as being over the legal limit, giving them the impression that they have no choice but to plead guilty. However, a guilty plea will result in a criminal record that will follow you for life, and may have a negative impact on your ability to find employment or housing, and can damage your representation.
You are innocent until proven guilty and you have rights. We are here to help defend you and your rights. Just because you may have failed the Breathalyzer test does not mean that you are automatically guilty. BAC readings are prone to all types of errors, from human error on the part of the person administering the test to improperly calibrated machines. In some cases, the police may not even have had probable cause to make a traffic stop in the first place, making any evidence against you inadmissible. We will explore every available avenue to help you build a solid defense.
