Fighting for Your Child's Freedom

Our firm has more than 35+ years of combined experience representing charges like underage drinking. As former prosecutors, our understanding of how a case will be tried has given us an advantage in that we can anticipate the complications and problems that may arise for both sides and prepare accordingly.
Underage drinking conviction can lead to the following consequences:

Avoiding the Consequences of Underage DUI
If there has been a conviction in the past, the consequences for this crime could be more significant. When other factors are involved, such as driving while intoxicated or being involved in a hit and run, there could be compounded charges. The court could also order community service, probation, and counseling programs if your child is convicted.
