Savannah DUI Per Se Lawyers

What is Georgia’s DUI Per Se Law?

Georgia’s DUI laws stand to protect its roadways by prohibiting driving after overconsumption of alcohol. DUI laws condemn drunk drivers who impose potential threats to others on the road. Georgia’s DUI per se law states that if your alcohol concentration is 0.08 grams or more within 3 hours after driving, it is presumed the driver is too impaired to safety drive.

Contact Schneider Lerch, LLC today for representation against a DUI per se charge in Savannah.

DUI Per Se Defenses

To be found guilty of a DUI per se charge, the arresting officer needs to provide reputable evidence that the driver’s BAC was above .08% within three hours of operating the vehicle. They must also show that the BAC is the result of drinking before the driver operated the vehicle if the test was done after the person drove rather than at the time they were pulled over.

Even if the officer shows that they recorded a BAC reading at or above .08%, Schneider Lerch, LLC can apply specific defenses to fight your per se charge. If the officer failed to inform you of Georgia’s implied consent law and your right to refuse a test or have it administered a different way, there are grounds to question the charge.

DUI per se charges are serious, but they are not defenseless. Schneider Lerch, LLC’s attorneys offer the counsel, professional experience, and knowledge necessary to fight any DUI per se charge in Savannah.

Schneider Lerch, LLC will help you fight your DUI per se charge. Call us today to begin with a free case review: (912) 417-5008.

    “Extreme gratitude for all of the hard work and long hours”
    I know I didn't give you much to work with but you did an amazing job throughout the trial and I continued to be amazed at how good of an outcome we achieved. I truly believe the decisions you made and the clever strategies you used saved me from spending multiple years of my life incarcerated and for that, I fear I will never be able to express my gratitude fully.

    “Amazing Representation.”
    I contacted Ms. Lerch along with several other firms and attorneys when my husband was wrongfully charged and denied bond. She was the only person to return my calls. She went right to work and had my husband home within a week. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of representation. We love Ms. Lerch. Fair pticing as well.
