It’s not hard for a person who garners a DUI charge to feel panicked and intimidated when faced with law enforcement. Nothing is quite as unnerving as being brought down to the police station for an arrest. If you took a breathalyzer test and failed because your BAC (blood alcohol concentration) was above .08, your case doesn’t have to end badly. Talk to a New Carrollton DUI lawyer to see what to do next.

One of the biggest mistakes a defendant can make is to not hire legal representation at all. DUI attorneys have seen and heard of numerous cases when counsel and advice might have turned a case around. And if you don’t get that advice quickly enough, the costs can be steep. Consequences of a DUI conviction in Maryland may include fines, driver’s license suspension, points against your license, skyrocketing insurance premiums, and even jail time. Having a criminal record – even after you’ve served probation – may decrease employment opportunities for the rest of your life. It’s an all-too-common reality that companies don’t like to hire those with criminal records. Get in touch with a New Carrollton DUI attorney the moment you think you are being charged or investigated.

You won’t know how much an attorney may be able to do for you case, which is why it’s imperative to contact them early. Depending upon your particular circumstances, your attorney may want to investigate several options. Typically they explore pleading to a lesser charge, obtaining an offer of probation before judgment, or PBJ, or even going to court to defend you at trial.
