Defense against charges of drunk driving by minors
In the US, laws regarding alcohol consumption and driving by minors (Underage DUI) are extremely strict. Most states have a “zero tolerance” policy: even the smallest amount of alcohol in a minor driver's system can be grounds for prosecution. If your child or teenager in your family is facing such charges, it is important to act quickly and contact a lawyer who specializes in defending against underage DUI charges. At the Consultant legal marketplace, we will help you find a qualified lawyer who will defend your child's interests in court and help protect their future.
Juvenile DUI charges: consequences for minors
Unlike adult drivers, in most states, minors can be charged with DUI even with a BAC (blood alcohol content) of 0.01%. Such a charge will not only remain on the child's criminal record, but may also affect their ability to attend college, obtain scholarships, find employment, and obtain a driver's license in the future. Potential consequences:
- Temporary or long-term loss of driver's license
- Entry into the criminal registry
- Court fines and rehabilitation program fees
- Mandatory traffic safety courses
- Requirement for parents to bear joint responsibility
How defense works in underage DUI cases
A lawyer who handles juvenile cases understands not only the legal but also the social aspects of such cases. On the Consultant legal marketplace, lawyers do not just defend in court — they build a strategy that minimizes the long-term consequences for the child. Typical stages of a lawyer's work:
- Analysis of the police report, body camera video, and alcohol test results.
- Study of the procedure for stopping the car and the legality of the actions of law enforcement officers.
- Verification of breathalyzer or blood test results.
- Communication with the prosecutor's office to reduce the charges.
- Representation at juvenile or criminal court hearings.
Please note: In many states, simply suspecting the smell of alcohol on a minor driver is enough to open a case. Breathalyzer results are not always the only basis for charges, so a lawyer must be able to challenge the very basis for the stop.
What to do immediately after your child is detained:
- Do not allow your child to give written or oral explanations without a lawyer.
- Record all details of the stop: time, place, police attitude, presence of body cameras.
- Do not sign any documents without first having them reviewed by a lawyer.
- Contact the Consultant platform to find a lawyer.
- Start collecting references or character references from educational institutions — this may mitigate the situation.
