DUI Charges in the Military

Driving drunk is considered a serious offense since it puts others in harm’s way. For civilians, if an individual driver’s blood alcohol content (BAC) was tested at over 0.08%—or even less in some circumstances—he or she may be arrested and charged with a DUI. For members of the military, the law is even stricter. Any measurable amount of alcohol can be sufficient for a DUI charge if it affects your ability to drive a vehicle. Our firm understands the unique aspects of the case that could serve to make a difference in the end result.
