Our Hiawassee DUI Lawyers are Here to Help

While charged with DUI, it is highly likely that you received a ticket for a traffic violation as well. In many cases, a successful defense to the traffic violation itself can lead to a dismissal of the DUI. The successful defense of the traffic violation can result in the collapse of the probable cause that supports the stop of your vehicle. In sum, by defending the underlying charge, you can also defend against the DUI charge.

Our DUI attorneys in Hiawassee GA have the knowledge, experience, and skills to achieve an excellent outcome for your case. While every case is different and results cannot be guaranteed, many of our clients have had their DUI charges dismissed, reduced, had jail time modified to community service, and more.

Attorney Richard Lawson formerly served as a prosecutor but has spent more than 25 years defending those charged with DUI. Because of his experience as a prosecutor, he is able to bring an incredible and rare perspective and knowledge to each case.
