Repeat DUI Offenses in Cobb County
Marietta DUI Defense Attorney
Were you recently charged with a subsequent DUI offense? What can you expect if you are a repeat offender? While all DUI charges are serious, if you were previously convicted of a DUI within the last 10 years, it will be harder to obtain a charge dismissal or reduction and you will face increased penalties.
When charged with a repeat DUI offense, it is important that you understand the situation fully. If you are confused about anything pertaining to your DUI charge, Stahlman Law, P.C. would be happy to counsel and guide you through this process and provide you with the defense you deserve!
