A DUI charge in Georgia can disrupt your life overnight. From the moment of arrest, you face potential license suspension, steep fines, and even jail time. Beyond the criminal penalties, a DUI conviction can affect employment, insurance rates, and your personal reputation.
At Rock Remson Law, we provide strong, informed legal representation for individuals facing DUI charges in Atlanta, GA, and surrounding areas, including Buckhead, Fulton County, and Dekalb County. Every case is approached with focus, care, and determination to protect our clients’ rights and futures.
Georgia has strict DUI laws, and even a first-time offense carries serious consequences. You can be charged with DUI if:
Your blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.08% or higher (or 0.04% for commercial drivers).
You are under 21 with a BAC of 0.02% or higher.
You are suspected of being under the influence of drugs, even without a positive test result.
DUI charges may involve:
Alcohol-related DUIs
Drug-related DUIs (prescription or illegal substances)
Refusal to submit to chemical testing
Aggravated DUIs (accidents or injuries involved)
The law gives prosecutors wide latitude, meaning that even minor evidence can lead to a conviction if not properly challenged.
The penalties depend on your BAC, prior offenses, and the presence of aggravating factors.
Up to 12 months in jail
Fines from $300 to $1,000
License suspension for up to one year
40 hours of community service
Mandatory DUI education programs
Minimum 72 hours in jail, up to 12 months
Fines up to $1,000
License suspension for three years
Ignition interlock device requirement
Felony DUI charges possible
Significant jail time
Permanent license revocation
These penalties can increase sharply if an accident, injury, or child passenger is involved.
A strong defense often focuses on procedure and accuracy. Common arguments include:
Unlawful traffic stop — The officer must have had a valid reason to pull you over.
Faulty testing equipment — Breathalyzer devices must be calibrated and maintained correctly.
Improper field sobriety tests — Many tests are subjective and unreliable.
Violation of rights — If your rights were violated during the arrest, evidence can be suppressed.
We use these defenses and others to weaken the prosecution’s case and pursue a more favorable outcome.
After a DUI arrest, you have 30 days to request an ALS hearing to contest your driver’s license suspension. Missing this deadline can automatically result in suspension, even before your criminal case begins.
Our firm helps clients file timely requests, represent them at the hearing, and argue for the reinstatement or preservation of driving privileges.

Clients choose us because:
We challenge evidence thoroughly to uncover weaknesses.
We maintain direct communication with clients throughout the process.
We handle every case with discretion and respect for privacy.
We focus on results that protect your freedom, record, and driving privileges.
Attorney Rock Remson understands how prosecutors handle DUI cases — and how to counter their tactics effectively.
Every DUI case has its own facts, and success depends on careful preparation. At Rock Remson Law, we follow a structured defense process to ensure no detail is overlooked.
We start by reviewing the arrest report, field sobriety test details, and any video or body camera footage. This step helps us determine if the officer followed proper procedures.
We analyze the results of breath, blood, or urine tests for errors. Breathalyzers can malfunction, and blood samples may be mishandled — errors that can make evidence inadmissible.
We craft a defense strategy tailored to your circumstances. Common strategies include questioning probable cause, challenging test accuracy, or disputing whether you were truly impaired.
Depending on the facts, we may seek to have the charges reduced or dismissed. If the case goes to trial, we’re fully prepared to defend your rights in front of a judge or jury.
If you’ve been arrested for DUI, you need to act fast to protect your license, record, and reputation. The sooner you involve a defense attorney, the stronger your case can become.
