Refusing to Take the Breathalyzer Test
At Brennan Law Offices, we have over 20 years of experience defending people against charges of drunk driving and a wide range of other criminal allegations.
A concept called "Implied Consent" comes into play in DUI arrests in Pennsylvania. Implied consent means that if you are driving a vehicle on a Pennsylvania road, it is implied that you automatically consent to take the breathalyzer test or blood alcohol test in the event you are arrested. If you refuse to take the test, you automatically lose your driver's license for 12 months.
Refusing to take the breathalyzer test is a legal issue played out in civil courts, as opposed to criminal courts. A knowledgeable defense lawyer can help you with the criminal defense aspects of a DUI arrest as well as the civil charges you will face for refusal. Our attorneys are equipped to help you fight back against criminal charges and make the strongest case possible for keeping your driver's license.
A Strong Defense Starts Here
Even if you beat your criminal DUI charges, you could still lose your license in the civil court proceedings. It is important to have an attorney in your corner with experience in both sides of this issue. Contact us today online or by telephone at 866-457-5946 to discuss your case with a highly-qualified defense attorney.
