If your license was taken away after a DUI arrest in Georgia, you need to act quickly. You have only 30 days to challenge the suspension. Although you’ll receive a temporary license, it won’t last long. It’s crucial to contact a criminal defense lawyer right away. This ensures a hearing with the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) is scheduled within 30 days of your arrest. Waiting too long means losing your chance to contest the suspension.
Why You Need to Act Quickly
Failing a chemical test (breath, blood, or urine) or refusing to take one can lead to a license suspension of up to a year if you don’t act fast. Our legal team is ready to provide a strong defense at your DDS hearing. The State must prove you failed a chemical test or violated the state’s implied consent law to suspend your license. You might save your license by showing:
· Your BAC was under the legal limit of .08%
· The officer lacked probable cause to stop you
· You did not refuse chemical testing
· Your arrest didn’t follow legal procedures
· The chemical tests weren’t administered correctly
