DUI

Atlanta Drunk Driving Attorney

An arrest for drunk driving can seriously affect your life, your lifestyle, and your livelihood. It can cost you money, cause you to lose your drivers license, and even lead to jail time.

To deal effectively with this problem, you need a knowledgeable and experienced drunk driving attorney on your side.

At Andrews, Knowles & Princenthal, we represent clients accused of driving under the influence. In numerous cases, we have obtained dismissal of such charges or achieved a result which minimized the consequences for our clients.

Successful DUI Defense

Over the years, the ability of a defense lawyer to challenge a DUI arrest has steadily been eroded due to changes in the law and breath testing technology and procedures. Nevertheless, it is possible to successfully defend a client who has failed a breath test.

The police officer may have had no legitimate reason to make the traffic stop or continue the investigation. The officer may have erred in conducting the field test. Back at the station, the breathalyzer test may have been conducted wrongly or the machine not in perfect working order.

In these situations or when the client has one or more DUI convictions already, Andrews, Knowles & Princenthal aggressively defends our clients. Our goal is to obtain a dismissal, a favorable plea negotiation, or exoneration at trial.

Moving Beyond the Arrest

In many cases the State has strong evidence. Here, we work to obtain the best outcome possible — including the retention of driving privileges — so the client can move beyond the arrest and resume normal life. We understand the sentencing options the justice system provides and work to minimize the legal and practical effects a conviction brings.

Whether your case involves a first-time arrest or a DUI accident, a lawyer at Andrews, Knowles & Princenthal will provide strong representation designed to obtain the best outcome possible.
