Camden County Multiple DUI Attorney

Leading DUI Defense Attorneys Represent Clients Charged With Multiple DUI Offenses In Camden County and throughout South Jersey

The Garden State has stiff penalties for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. A driver can be charged with DWI when their blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.08 percent or more. A driver can also be charged with DWI when that level is below the legal threshold. Consuming any amount of alcohol that negatively impacts your driving can result in a drunk driving conviction. New Jersey drivers can also be charged with DUI if they are operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of a narcotic, habit-producing drug, or a hallucinogenic. Marijuana, prescription drugs, and over-the-counter medications can all impair your judgment and your ability to drive.
