| We have represented thousands of people facing drink driving charges and have a comprehensive knowledge of this extremely technical area of the law. Drink driving is an imprisonable offence, which reflects just how seriously it is taken by the government and the courts.
Drink driving carries a minimum 12 month period of disqualification, but the police still have to prove you guilty of the offence.
The risks and consequences are obvious. The obvious risk is the minimum period of disqualification, namely 12 months and the more you are over the limit then the greater the ban and at the top end of the scale, 6 months imprisonment remains an option for the court. We can advise you on any likely punishment.
If you have a previous conviction for a drink driving within the last 10 years you could face a minimum 3 year disqualification. If convicted of a drink drive offence your insurance premiums will increase drastically. This is a technical area of law. No one should plead guilty without taking proper advice from our team, who have successfully defended many drink driving cases over the years.
This subject remains as topical as ever. Year on year it appears that the crackdown will continue on drinking and driving. It is a fast changing area of law where the introduction of new technology is common.
