DUI / UPA

Athens DUI Lawyer

DUI/DWI offenses are often a focus for law enforcement authorities in a college town. Athens, with the University of Georgia, is no exception. Athens-Clarke County prosecutors take a strong stand toward all alcohol related offenses such as DUI and the underage possession of alcohol (UPA). But a skilled criminal defense attorney can help to protect your legal rights if you have been arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or UPA.

It is important to have on your side an experienced criminal defense attorney knowledgeable in the workings of the local court system, and familiar with local prosecuting attorneys and judges' preferences and tendencies. Contact a reputable Athens DUI lawyer at Thomas A. Camp, P.C. for an initial consultation.
