      DUI Repeat Offenders

      A DUI offense is a serious matter. In the state of Maryland, Transportation Article § 21-902 states that “a person may not drive or attempt to drive any vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, And section 16-205 states that “the Administration may revoke the license of any person who…”

      • Is convicted of driving or attempting to drive a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol;
      • Has been convicted of homicide by a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, impaired by alcohol, or impaired by any drug; or
      • Is convicted of driving or attempting to drive a motor vehicle while impaired by alcohol or while so far impaired that the person cannot drive a vehicle safely.

      The penalties associated with drunk driving become harsher for DUI repeat offenders: fines are significantly increased, jail time becomes longer, and the overall effect the DUI has on one’s daily life becomes even more apparent.

      The attorney’s and paralegals are incredible. They are truly committed to understanding your case and serving you. However, I’ve personally worked with Mr. Berman and Mrs. Bowman through my entire process! I am so grateful for their passion, dedication, and professionalism. I haven’t worked with many attorney’s in the past, but I’m glad you all were recommended to me. You all are truly the best. Thank you so much!
