While the court has some discretion in regard to sentencing, in general, the following penalties apply if you are convicted of drunk driving for the first time:<\/p>

  • Fine\/fees: $300 to $1,000<\/li>
  • License suspension: one year<\/li>
  • Jail: up to one year<\/li>
  • Community service: 40 hours<\/li>
  • DUI driver education: mandatory<\/li><\/ul>

    If you have been charged with underage drinking or teenage drunk driving, Mr. Duncan can also help protect your immediate rights and your future<\/p>

    In addition to first-time DUI offenses, Mr. Duncan also handles repeat or multiple drunk driving offenses as well as drunk driving accidents that may be charged as reckless homicide or manslaughter. These carry very serious consequences and even more extreme penalties.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    If you are stopped for DUI and you refuse to take the requested State administered chemical test (either breath test, blood test or urine sample), or if you take the test and your blood alcohol level amounts to a “per se” violation, the arresting officer is required by law to submit a report to the Department of Public Safety to initiate an administrative license suspension hearing. This hearing is separate and apart from any criminal hearing (plea or trial) and is conducted by the Office of State Administrative hearings.<\/p>

    An administrative Driver’s License suspension is a different suspension than the suspension you will receive if you are convicted of DUI in the City of Kingsland, and may occur before you even go to court for your DUI.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    If Earl J. Duncan represents you with regard to your City of Kingsland, speeding ticket or other City of Kingsland traffic case, our objective will be avoiding points on your driving record. Please note that if you simply pay the ticket that you are, in effect, pleading guilty and that you likely will receive points on your driving record, which may cause your insurance rates to go up and could possibly lead to your driver’s license being suspended for excessive points.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    The Georgia legislature has enacted a “super speeder” law which could affect your driver’s license and your budget in a negative way. Under the new “super speeder” law, drivers who pay fines or who plead guilty to speeding at a rate higher that 14 miles per hour over the posted speed limit on interstate highways must pay two fines, one fine to the City of Kingsland, in which they were charged, and another new fine to the State, or their drivers license will be suspended.<\/p>
