I am Marietta, Georgia, minor alcohol possession attorney Ray Gary, Jr. My job is to work to keep the charge off your record and to help you maintain your driving privileges. A young person's criminal record will follow that person for the rest of his or her life when applying for college, employment and other opportunities. With my legal assistance, your child can still be a high achiever in the future. Contact me today for a free consultation to discuss the specific facts of your case.
Minor alcohol possession or consumption under the legal age is an offense that can have serious penalties, including jail time and stiff fines. Per Georgia open container law, points are added to one's license for driving with the open container (i.e., open bottle or open can) in the vehicle. If a young person fails an Alco Sensor test as a passenger in a vehicle, driving privileges can be lost for months.
I can let you know the possible penalties of your charge and the options available to you. Usually on the first offense of minor alcohol possession, I can get the charge dismissed upon performance of community service and attendance at DUI school. The charge will not go on your record and you will not lose your driver's license.

I will also aggressively defend your rights in traffic violations and other criminal law matters.
