DeKalb County DUI Attorney

Each year, Georgia law enforcement officers arrest thousands of individuals for driving under the influence (DUI)—and a large number of them are in DeKalb County. Unfortunately, these drivers face numerous criminal penalties if convicted of the offense in criminal court.  Along with an automatic license suspension and hefty fines, the minimum sentence for a Georgia DUI often includes time behind bars. However, with help from a DeKalb County DUI lawyer, many of the individuals who are arrested for drunk driving are able to avoid such severe consequences.

Prior to arresting a driver for DUI, officers often administer a series of tests known as field sobriety exercises. These so-called “tests” require the driver to perform exercises such as walking an invisible straight line, balancing on one foot, and/or following a small object with his or her eyes.

Although these activities may appear rather easy at first glance, they are actually designed for failure. Unlike most tests, the “grade” you receive on a field sobriety test is entirely subjective. In other words, it’s solely up to the officer to decide whether you fail or pass—and keep in mind that the very fact you are given these tests means that he or she already suspects you of drunk driving.

Due to the subjective nature of field sobriety exercises, many drivers are able to challenge their results and prevent them from being used against them in criminal court.
