Underage Drinking and Driving

Underage Drinking and Driving in Pennsylvania

If your teenage son or daughter has been arrested and charged with drunk driving, get them the help they need and contact an experienced criminal defense lawyer at The Law Offices of Gary E. Gerson today.

At the Law Offices of Gary E. Gerson, our attorney, Gary E. Gerson, has been aggressively and effectively defending the rights of underage clients from throughout western Pennsylvania for more than 20 years including those from colleges and universities such as the University of Pittsburgh, Duquesne University, Carlow University, Chatham College, Robert Morris University, Community College of Allegheny County (CCAC), Penn State University, Grove City College, Slippery Rock University, Gannon University, Waynesburg College, Washington and Jefferson College, Carnegie Mellon University, West Virginia University.

Mr. Gerson's experience includes providing drunk driving defense against all juvenile and underage DUI / DWI charges. The state of Pennsylvania has a "zero tolerance" BAC threshold for underage drinking and driving. And while not technically "zero," the .02 BAC limit for juveniles is low enough that even something as innocuous as cough syrup or mouthwash can put a minor over the legal limit.

Attorney Gary E. Gerson will look into all the avenues of defense that may be available in your son or daughter's case and fight hard to gain a dismissal or reduction of charges wherever possible. If dismissal is not an option, Mr. Gerson will use his negotiation skills to seek the most favorable disposition to the case. If your son or daughter is eligible, this could mean obtaining their placement into Pennsylvania's ARD program or some other type of diversionary program.
