If you are arrested for DUI in Georgia, you are facing very serious potential consequences to your liberty with punishments ranging from incarceration to fines to probation. In addition, a DUI arrest can have a negative impact upon driving privileges, and, as all of us who reside in Southeast Georgia know, public transportation is often-times not readily available. Therefore, the ability to maintain your employment can be drastically impacted.
