I appeared with my client in for Forsyth State Court. She had been charged with DUI, prescription drugs. My client was involved in a major single car accident which almost took her life.
Georgia code 40-6-391 driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, states that even though you may be taking legal medications prescribed by your doctor, you can still be arrested for DUI from use of legal drug if your driving is impaired in anyway.
For a first offense conviction of DUI the monetary fine can range between $300-$1000. Jail time can be between 10 days and 12 months.
Following considerable negotiation with the prosecutor we agreed to a guilty plea to DUI with statutory minimums except for a fine of $700.
This is a very good outcome for my client considering the severity of the accident.
This lady is another very happy client of the Alpharetta, Georgia DUI defense attorney Scott Miller.
