Not all Georgia DUI Attorneys are created equal. While we cannot guarantee results, we can promise to work diligently and passionately on your case. From the moment you contact our offices you will speak directly with an attorney. This is important because the time immediately after a DUI arrest is the most important. Preservation of evidence and witness testimony is necessary to a good DUI defense.
More importantly, if your drivers license was taken after the DUI arrest and you were issued a Georgia DUI form 1205 immediate action must be taken. Failure to start the proper appeal will result in an ALS suspension of your drivers license under Georgia Law.
You will find representative settlements and verdicts obtained by the Benzine Law Group below. Please keep in mind that every case is fact specific and different and that these verdicts and settlements do not represent what we may be able to obtain for you in your specific case. It also does not mean that our office wins each and every one of our cases. We do not. However, we have obtained significant results for our clients–a fact that our other clients tell us was an important factor in choosing our office to represent them.
If you are interested in learning more about these cases, or any others we have handled, please let us know when you contact our office for a free consultation.
