DUI charges are serious offenses that come with significant consequences. One drunk driving charge can change your life forever. That’s why the criminal lawyers at the Law Offices of Michael L. Brown, Jr. want you to know some important information about South Carolina’s DUI charges – and if you’re stopped for drunk driving, contact a DUI lawyer immediately.

Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC)

The BAC is a measurement of alcohol intoxication in a person. At high levels, you are a danger to yourself and others should you choose to drive. In South Carolina, it is considered illegal for a person to drive with a BAC of 0.08% or higher. It is illegal for commercial drivers to drive with a BAC of 0.04%. However, it’s important to note that you can still be charged with a DUI even if you fall under the legal limit since these charges can depend on other circumstances.

Legal Consequences

A DUI charge can lead to a license suspension, fines, and jail time. This is why it’s essential that you reach out to a DUI lawyer to help you with your case.

Of course, the best defense against a DUI charge is to avoid drinking and driving altogether. But if you do need a South Carolina DUI lawyer, call the Law Offices of Michael L. Brown, Jr. to schedule a consultation.
