Conley, GA DUI Law Firms & Lawyers

DId you freely go with your lawyer and enter a plea in front of the judge to the lesser charge, or did you have a trial on your DUI?  If you did the former, then you supposedly represented to the judge that the plea was knowingly and voluntarily entered.  If you trusted in your lawyer and felt they informed you beforehand, you should feel relieved you received the security of a lesser, negotiated plea.  If your lawyer blindsided you, then you should hire a second lawyer to attempt to undo the plea and go to trial.  

Interesting fact situation. In Missouri the hand held device the police have you blow into on the side of the road is not calibrated. Therefore the results are not admissible in court. Te fact you tested below the legal limit at a later time does give you some wiggle room. However, that in and of itself will probably not lead to a dismissal. The state could argue that your blood alcohol was higher at the time of the traffic stop and that it went down because of the time that passed since you had your last drink. Definetly get an attorney in your state who has experience in handling DUI cases and you might just win.

There is a way to keep your license or at least get a restricted license to drive to and from work. You should contact an attorney for more information.   Steven Berne, Esq. (404) 881-5335 bernelaw.com
