Driving Under the Influence is a serious charge.  In Georgia, it can arise out of an alleged use of alcohol, drugs (legal or illegal), inhalants, or any combination thereof.

In Georgia, every driver is presumed to have consented to a test of their blood, breath or urine upon request.  Drivers are still entitled to an implied consent warning upon an officer requesting that they submit to such a test or tests.  Failure to comply with the request for testing can result in the suspension of a driver's license or privilege to drive in the state.

Quite often, there has been a failure by the officer to comply with the requirements of the implied consent warning, proper testing procedures, Miranda warnings, field sobriety testing or other matters.  It is our task to identify these deficiencies and attempt to turn them to your advantage.

The truth is you don't and the state doesn't.  Georgia decided to have most of the equipment that would double-check BAC results removed from the Intoxilyzer 5000 before they put it into use.  However, you can download software which will tell you what your BAC probably was based on how much you had to drink and when.  To find out more, click here.
