UNDERAGE POSSESSION OF ALCOHOL (UPA) | MINOR IN POSSESSION (MIP)

Representation for Underage Alcohol Charges

Hollywood stars and many reality shows have glamorized teen drinking. High school parties and drinking in the early years of college may be fun when it is happening, but the after effects are not always as enjoyable. If you are caught drinking or in possession of alcohol before you are 21, the consequences can be serious.

At the Juvenile Law Group, we represent teens and young adults throughout Atlanta, Georgia, and the surrounding areas for underage alcohol crimes. Contact our firm online or call 404-633-3797 or toll free 866-719-3420 to schedule your appointment with an experienced lawyer.

Underage Alcohol Crimes

If you are under 21, there are numerous opportunities to get in trouble for alcohol related crimes. You may be caught at a party, in school, in the car, or at bars and restaurants. Even if you are not drinking the alcohol when you are caught with it, you can still get in trouble. Our attorneys defend clients who are facing charges such as:

  • Drunk driving (DUI)
  • Minor in possession of alcohol
  • Underage consumption

If you are a minor who has been charged with an alcohol related crime, you may be facing a range of possible charges. Getting suspended from school, taking DUI classes or diversion programs are all possible consequences. Depending on the severity of the crime, you may also serve time at a Resident Youth Detention Center (RYDC) or a Youth Development Center (YDC).

At the Juvenile Law Group, our attorneys are committed to helping clients get the fair treatment they deserve. We take the time to understand our clients and fight aggressively on their behalf.
