DUI is a serious problem. Thousands of Alabama residents are killed each year due to DUI accidents. Although many of these accidents result in the death of the intoxicated party, a significant and unfortunate number involve the deaths of innocent parties who were in the wrong place when someone chose to drive a car while impaired. DUI is dangerous for those individuals who are on the road at the same time. In addition to the severe physical injuries that may result from a DUI accident, serious emotional and mental scars may never fully heal for the offender or their victims. No matter how serious your case is, please don’t fret; our attorneys are trained to handle your case with ardent skill and expertise.
“Blood Alcohol Level” is a term used to describe the level of alcohol in the bloodstream of a person arrested for DUI. It is commonly determined through a breath test or, at times, blood and urine testing. It is usually used in court as evidence of that offense, and the test results can establish a presumption of impairment. Under Alabama law, the legal blood limit is .08% for persons over 21 years of age and .02% for persons under the age of 21.
Your license can be seized if you are convicted of DUI. For a first offense, there is a 90-day to 1-year suspension. A second DUI offense carries a suspension of 2 years to 900 days. If there is a third DUI offense, your license may be suspended for 3 to 4 years. An ignition interlock device (IID) will be installed on your vehicle in all three cases. Do not hesitate to book a consultation with us at your convenience and acquire the assistance of expert drinking and driving attorney.
Mark has handled several legal matters for me over the past several years. All of them were quite difficult and emotionally exhausting. I got the results I desired. I can honestly say I could not have been more pleased with his services that he and his staff provided. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Turner to handle any legal matter that somebody might need help.
I contacted Mr. Turner for help with a difficult case. He was very timely and informative. He helped in so many ways. Eliminating unnecessary expenses and time. He even follows up after to see if there’s anything else that needs attention. I hired Mr. Turner and would recommend him.
Mark has been a friend and attorney for several years now. After a 15 year marriage that ended he always had my best interest in mind, some I didn’t want to hear but needed to. Mark is/was always willing to listen to me and give advice. My son had a situation that ended up being nothing and Mark met with us after I got off work and talked with my 23 year old like he was his own, my son respected him. I would highly recommend Mark
Mark was referred to me by a friend to help me with an uncontested divorce. I did a lot of checking around & it was $500 minimum until I spoke with Mark. I saved so much money & was so happy to have an attorney who I dealt with directly & not other staff. He even met me at a Chick-fil-A after I got off work one night. My divorce process was so easy and quick. Mark is very professional, intelligent, calming & pleasant. Truly a breath of fresh air. I actually just hired him again to handle an adoption.
I hired Mr Turner to defend me in a criminal case inwhich I was basically dead to rights on three charges, so I was hoping for a reduced sentence at best. But Mr. Turner was determined to do better than that and fought for me against impossible odds, under one of the toughest judges in the state and a merciless prosecutor. He would not give up and the final result was ZERO jail time!!! He was always professional, always available to contact, extremely helpful and very informative. He exceeded my expectations in every way and I could not have asked for a better lawyer or a better outcome.
