3rd DUI Offense in Cherokee County

(404) 816-4440

Cherokee County DUI Attorney

Officers in patrol cars are on the lookout for infractions and indications that a driver may be impaired. Many drivers, when pulled over by a law enforcement officer, don't realize that law enforcement now has the capacity to check a driver's driving record for prior convictions on the spot. If the officer finds out that this driver has prior DUI convictions this can affect the officer's decision to begin a DUI investigation even if there is no discernible smell of alcohol or other evidence. It is impossible to say how much the officer's attitude and conclusions could be affected by knowing that this driver has already been convicted of a 1st or 2nd DUI . Some people after being arrested for a 3rd DUI lose heart and feel there is no point in fighting. Without seeking legal advice, they decide to plead guilty and take the punishment. By consulting an experienced Cherokee County DUI attorney, you may be surprised to find out that there are a number of DUI defense strategies which could be effective in your case.
