San Diego DUI Attorney

DUI & Underage Individuals

In the state of California, the law says that only people who are age 21 and older can legally consume alcohol.  Anytime people who are below the age of 21 drink alcohol and they are caught driving by law enforcement, they can be charged with underage DUI, which is a serious criminal offense.  When underage drivers are facing criminal charges, much is at risk, especially because they are so young and their charges can adversely impact their futures.

Due to the consequences that are associated with underage DUI, it is important that those who have been charged with this crime consult with a San Diego DUI defense lawyer immediately.  This is imperative, especially for those who had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher at the time of their arrests.
