Our Statesboro DUI/DWI defense attorney can act on your behalf to file an ALS (administrative license hearing) request and argue your case before the administrative law judge presiding over the hearing. We have considerable experience in handling all aspects of Georgia DUI cases. As a trial-tested litigator, our attorney brings a strong presence to any legal venue.

Driving After a DUI Arrest

If you are charged with driving while impaired, driving with a blood alcohol concentration of .08 percent or higher, or if you refuse to submit to alcohol or drug testing, you will be charged with DUI and face an automatic license suspension. In Georgia, you have a choice of either filing to appeal the automatic suspension or installing an ignition interlock device in your vehicle. The Brannen Law Office, P.C. can give you the legal guidance needed concerning the two scenarios and how to proceed.

To appeal the automatic license suspension, you must act within 30 days from the date of your arrest. When a police officer arrests you for DUI, he will seize your license and issue a form asking the DDS to automatically suspend your license. If you do nothing, your license will be suspended. However, if you request an ALS hearing, the request will place the automatic suspension into a pending state under after the hearing has been held and the administrative law judge has rendered a decision.

At the hearing, your defense lawyer can challenge various aspects of your arrest such as whether:

The arresting officer had reasonable grounds to pull you over
Chemical tests were conducted properly
You were informed of the consequences of taking or refusing tests
The testing equipment was properly maintained or faulty

Any of the above factors and more can greatly affect the outcome of the hearing and prove favorable to you.

- David M.
"Highly Recommend"
Mr. Brannen represented my mom in court. We live out of state and had to drive over 16 hours round trip and he did what was best for us to finish this in one go so that we would not have to return. He is honest and does what he says he will do. His paralegal julie is also helpful and kind.

- Jenna
"Honest, steady, and dedicated"
This review is long overdue. Scott was the best advocate I could have asked for—honest, steady, and dedicated. He never promised results, only that he would work tirelessly on my behalf, and he did. He was always reachable, answered even my simplest questions with patience, and made a complicated process feel manageable. The outcome truly changed my life. I’m deeply grateful for his work.

- Jesse S.
"Profoundly and wholeheartedly grateful"
Words cannot truly capture the depth of gratitude my family and I feel for Mr. Brannen. He went above and beyond to bring us peace during some of the most frightening moments. His calm guidance, constant updates, and thoughtful advice on the best steps to take gave us strength when we needed it most. Somehow, he managed to work toward exactly what my family and I had been praying for over the past six months. Though I wish I could share every detail, what I can say with certainty is that we are profoundly and wholeheartedly grateful to Mr. Brannen.
