Legal statutes vary from one state to another, but generally, implied consent laws could mean automatic penalties for refusal. Despite this, there are scenarios where refusing could be to your advantage but only with the right legal counsel supporting you.
The Implied Consent Law and Its Implications
Implied consent laws state that by having a driver's license and using public roads, you automatically consent to chemical testing if suspected of DUI. Refusing a breathalyzer might result in immediate consequences such as a suspended license or fines. These penalties happen separately from any that arise from DUI charges themselves.
However, our experienced legal team often emphasizes that implied consent does not remove your constitutional rights, and there may be instances where refusal is convenable. It's a delicate balance that requires professional evaluation.
Consequences of Refusing a Breathalyzer Test
Penalties for refusing a breathalyzer vary, but one can expect a range of repercussions such as administrative license suspension or even mandatory jail time. Our attorneys are adept at navigating such complex situations and ensuring that you understand the extent of these penalties.
Understanding these penalties is vital in crafting the defense that aligns with your case's specifics. Our team will dissect the potential outcomes with you during your consultation.
